Chapter 515: Interstellar World Farming (28)

Shen Yao's original plan was for the family to stay with Xu Father and Xu Mother for a while, then return to Chaoyang Star for a while.

Now, because there was a situation at Rose Star where Xu Mother was located, they unconsciously extended their stay.

What Xu Mother had said earlier was still somewhat conservative; Rose Star was roses everywhere, clearly rose creations from top to bottom.

Even the rivers flowing through the rose fields carried a fresh, sweet fragrance; Shen Yao opened her arms wide, feeling the breeze blowing toward her face.

At this time, Rose Star was in the flower harvesting season, and mechanical tentacles constantly reached out toward the delicate petals.

One day in the future, these beautiful petals would be delivered to interstellar citizens in various forms.

The most common were potted plants for viewing, or made into essential oils and cosmetics, as well as edible fresh flower fillings, and artworks that could be preserved forever.

Because Shen Yao also had businesses in related fields, she did not avoid relatives in recommending the worthy; relying on suitable prices and her private relationship with Xu Mother, she successfully secured business from several surrounding planets.

Business spaceships came and went endlessly, and robots worked without pause; Shen Yao was almost infected by the scene before her eyes, eager to bury herself and join in.

The four children had started playing as soon as they came over; except for sleeping, they could not be found at other times.

Even because Xu Mother knew too well about several exploration planets nearby, Xu Chengning once begged Xu Cheng Yu to take her to play across planets.

Oh, worth mentioning is that Rose Star, because it had not officially ended the experiment, Xu Mother could not directly give it away; instead, she gave Xu Chengning the white magnolia-shaped planet they had seen when they came over as a gift.

The potted magnolia now placed before Shen Yao's bed was the thoughtfulness Xu Chengning personally dug back; everyone in the family (including herself) had one pot each.

These things could only be considered small pleasures in life, adding some luster to life.

Actually, Shen Yao had taken a liking to the unique creative ability of K-series Planets.

Compared to the planets she bought herself, which still required painstaking transformation and planting, the planets here came with their own specialty types, with quality fully controllable and effects excellent.

There was nothing more suitable for Shen Yao's industry than them, so half of the time Shen Yao stayed on Rose Star was spent researching how to buy exploration planets.

For this, Xu Mother had once advised Shen Yao to consider everything carefully and think prudently.

K-series Planets, due to their unique geographical location, were prone to impact phenomena; and once this phenomenon became serious, it could cause the risk of an entire planet being destroyed.

If Shen Yao's luck was not good, the exploration planet she bought might suffer impact and destruction in a short time, and the loss would have to be borne by herself.

At the same time, K-series Planets were generally expensive; the Federal Government never did losing business, and hoping to pick up bargains to take advantage of the Federal Government was simply unrealistic.

Shen Yao did not intend to take advantage of the Federal Government; she just planned to use the system to harvest wool.

K-series Planets were remote like L-system Planets, and the Federal Government did not spend much energy there.

If the system could predict some exploration planets with low impact probability and high-quality specialties based on its own ability, then even if the planet could not be kept in the end, Shen Yao would just be wavering between big profit and small profit, nowhere near losing money.

That was enough; having a means of transportation, what more did she need a bicycle for?

Knocking here and there, sketching and drawing, counting the Magnolia Star Xu Mother gave Xu Chengning, Shen Yao spent the Federal Currency she had saved in her wristband to buy ten exploration planets with different characteristics in one go.

She activated the spaceships one by one for on-site exploration, accompanied by Xu Zi Qing.

When Shen Yao returned to Rose Star, her liquid assets shrank significantly while her net worth doubled again.

"Host already has so many planets, still want to keep buying?"

The system found that the plot direction had become similar to some previous task worlds.

Wow

Was this human thought and personality? Even after experiencing many things, it was not easy to change.

"Buy, the more the better," she was under great pressure, with four brats under her knees all needing to be supported with great effort.

Besides, she had money and time, why not buy? Money saved could not make money.

She earnestly instilled her thoughts into her Silly White Sweet System: "Tasks have easy and hard ones; we should seize every opportunity that comes our way," only then could she complete the task and achieve excellence.

Getting by and lying flat could certainly sustain life, but that was not Shen Yao's goal of struggle.

Beep beep—

The wristband rang at the right time; it was Xu Zi Qing, notifying Shen Yao via communication that the joint action had made the official news.

Hmm?

Shen Yao opened the largest government website to check, and indeed saw the just-announced news at the top.

Below the action announcement were constantly posted comments, of all kinds.

Roughly estimated, those in agreement were far more than those opposed.

There were even those placing advertisements on the spot, recruiting Exploration Hunters and mercenaries, with food and lodging provided, to explore together.

Shen Yao:...

Shen Yao typed a sentence back to Xu Zi Qing: "Did you receive the invitation?"

Xu Zi Qing made an affirmative sound, indicating that some friends including Du Lanzhou wanted to go join the fun.

Join the fun?

The prerequisite for joining the fun was having sufficient benefits; otherwise, who would be bored enough to run over and join the fun?

Browsing the joint announcement on the government website again, she found the resource directory on the last page; comparing it with the internal documents Xu Zi Qing had sent her, Shen Yao could clearly draw a conclusion: the Federal Government had opened up more permits.

Tsk tsk tsk

How did it sound like it had a hint of cannon fodder? As a polity very good at plundering and devouring, for it to give up benefits and contention, there were only a few possibilities.

One was that the benefits ahead were too many, making those given up insignificant in comparison.

One was that the troubles ahead were too great; giving up some could reduce their own personnel losses and lower the estimated loss amount.

One was a combination of both; the Federal Government had no certainty, so it used resource attraction to increase its own chances of victory.

Shen Yao leaned toward the third; the Federal Government had not gone so insane as to use means against interstellar citizens, after all there were still so many interstellar territories to conquer; today, when technological means could achieve it, internal war was far less profitable than external war.

"Do you want to go?"

"No."

Xu Zi Qing answered crisply and decisively; he could feel the bloodiness in the invitation more; if he were still alone, he might go.

But now he had a wife and children by his side; those resources were certainly eye-catching, but not something he had to obtain at all costs.

Shen Yao breathed a sigh of relief; fortunately, otherwise she would have to persuade him, and if that failed, she would have to prepare fully to be a single mother, working hard to raise four children to adulthood alone.

System:...

"Does Host not like Xu Zi Qing?" Why would she still expect this person to kick the bucket.

"Liking him doesn't mean there's no preset worst-case plan," Shen Yao fully respects personal opinion; she has experienced so many task worlds, and every family she built is unique.

"Cooperating for so long, System, you still don't understand me enough."

Shen Yao has long passed the days of dying for love, and has long lost the spirit of recklessly throwing herself for romance; no matter how much she loves a man, it doesn't hinder her from relying on her own thoughts. Essentially, she just wants to live longer.

The mission is a necessary condition for her survival, and its completion level determines her quality of life in each task world.

Two conditions are laid out there; as for true love? Just a tool person.

The idle chat with the system ends here; Shen Yao turns around to activate the flying vehicle, circling the fixed route she previously demarcated for exploration and observation.

After all plans are busy finished, Shen Yao returns to the residence to discuss with Xu Zi Qing.

Perhaps because they didn't go, the atmosphere between the husband and wife is harmonious, and they can occasionally make some humorous jokes.

Shen Yao complains that those who went this time will suffer a loss; Xu Zi Qing adds that the bold are full while the timid starve to death. People of the Interstellar World have exceptionally abundant adventurous spirit, believing the announcement released by the Federal Government this time will end early due to being full.

As expected, the native Xu Zi Qing successfully manipulates this group of fanatics.

The announcement wasn't out for three days before the government issued a notification to stop registration.

Those who signed up celebrated with glee, those who couldn't sign up wept bitterly; all sorts of magical scenes left Shen Yao staring blankly, not knowing what to do.

Hey? This isn't right.

"Lian Dun Academy also sent quite a few teachers as bodyguards, plus upper-grade senior brothers and sisters," Xu Cheng Yu looked at the communication inside his wristband, then told the news to the four parents present.

Different from the government announcement, the rewards inside Lian Dun Academy are richer and more precious.

Shen Yao experienced what differential treatment is; this is clearly a distinct hierarchy.

Xu Cheng Yi shouted that if he went, he might be able to earn some resources.

"The academy won't let you go," Xu Cheng Yu pointed out sharply, "This mission is extremely dangerous," always feeling the Federal Government is a bit too radical.

Why?

The Federal Government has fought on the Interstellar Battlefield before, and even now the Interstellar Battlefield hasn't been completely closed.

United many forces to open up a new Interstellar region—is there some more important resource?

"Don't think so much; for now it has nothing to do with us," Shen Yao raised her hand and touched Xu Cheng Yu's head, telling him to focus more on training and improvement when he has free time recently, "By the time you enter the military, there won't be little you should know."

Worrying about it now won't affect the overall situation, because they simply have no qualification to enter.

Xu Cheng Yu and Xu Cheng Yi were sent out to train; Xu Cheng Shuo and Xu Chengning played carefree.

Xu Father and Xu Mother focused on researching Rose Star without cease; Shen Yao and Xu Zi Qing were also busy with their own affairs.

The joint action matter quickly passed from their mouths; occasionally mentioning it were only the continuous reports of good news—this one earned, that one earned—shortly put, the situation is entirely rosy, the big shots keep charging forward.

…………

Three months later, Xu Father and Xu Mother's research on Rose Star came to a conclusion.

The two planned to return to N30 Planet to handle some long-postponed proper business; Shen Yao's family of six also planned to return to Chaoyang Star.

Although Shen Yao has many planets and properties in hand, the status of Chaoyang Star remains unchanged.

No matter when, they like to return to Chaoyang Star to live.

Agreed with Xu Father and Xu Mother to reunite after they finish busy work; two spaceships left along different routes.

During the period it took several months; the intermediate process is no longer narrated one by one; only that they arrived safely at Chaoyang Star.

The crops in the farm grew well; batch after batch of harvested Ningshen Grass was sent to the warehouse; no matter when they returned, Shen Yao could be healed by the busy scene on the planet.

Xu Cheng Yu and Xu Cheng Yi were also very excited; they hadn't returned for several years.

Chaoyang Star changed greatly; the original mountain forests were all pushed down to become plains.

All kinds of farming robots ran around the surroundings; they are the foundation of the farm's operation, and also the backbone force of the entire planet's operation.

For this, Shen Yao additionally spent many Federal Currency, requesting relevant mechanical manufacturing industries to conduct research, striving to develop multifunctional robots in a more labor-saving way, convenient for self-production and self-sales and external sales.

Nowadays it can't be said that the robots they researched in farming are far ahead, but they are also among the top high cost-performance products among all types of robots.

Self-production and self-sales save money and effort; external sales earn money and can also build a reputation.

Without exaggeration, just the Federal Currency earned every year from selling various robots can account for 10% of Shen Yao's total income.

A proportion of nearly one-tenth has already rapidly become Shen Yao's ace industry under her hand, and there are also signs of gradually expanding production capacity year by year.

Like some planets mainly focused on farming, they are Shen Yao's key sales targets. Even combined with other related industries under her hand, Shen Yao's wealth growth is simply fast to a scary degree.

"Keep a low profile, keep a low profile; this money can't be moved for now," because the Xu Family hasn't been completely harvested yet, causing some industry development to only be able to proceed slowly.

Shen Yao has already begun to look forward to the Xu Family having trouble; this joint action... can't think, can't think; if it's unfavorable to Interstellar stability, it can't be said.

Shen Yao turned her head to live a leisurely and carefree life; on ordinary days when there's nothing to do, she handles official business, plays and frolics with the four children; anyway, Chaoyang Star is in a rearward position among N-system Planets; no matter what happens on the Interstellar Battlefield, it won't affect them for a while.

…………

Xu Cheng Yu and Xu Cheng Yi played crazily for a period of time; whatever training, whatever learning, all thrown behind their heads; every day they opened their eyes to play, closed their eyes to sleep.

Until the accumulated holidays were exhausted day by day, did the two of them have to reluctantly resume the self-disciplined life at Lian Dun Academy.

No way; Lian Dun Academy still needs to be studied for several more years; they can't graduate in a short time.

Shen Yao and Xu Zi Qing watched smiling; compared to running to be Exploration Hunters at a young age, returning to the academy to study is a very good thing.

It has to be said; even in the Interstellar World, parents still strictly grasp their children's studies.

Half a year later, the joint action organized by the government hadn't transmitted any bad news; Xu Cheng Yu and Xu Cheng Yi packed their things first and returned to N05 Planet to continue studying.

Shen Yao and Xu Zi Qing, as parents, naturally personally sent them on a trip.

After sending the people safely to Lian Dun Academy, the family of several then received a not-so-good news; the joint action on the front line had an accident, many people lost contact, and the government still hasn't found the cause of lost contact.

The Federal Government issued an announcement again, doubling the released resources, relying on increasing manpower to solve the front line's predicament.
