Chapter 754: Lin Eleven Finally Has a Wife

~13 min read 2,458 words

Lin Feng came this time specifically to inspect the assembly status of Jasmine No. 3 and No. 4.

Although the Americans and the Japanese had already quietly prepared to launch rockets for a moon landing at any moment, Lin Feng did not urge after meeting Huang Ziping.

Compared with Jasmine No. 1 and No. 2, the new generation No. 3 and No. 4 are far more precise.

The more precise something is, the more prone it is to problems.

Lin Feng does not want the two Jasmine ships to develop various minor issues due to rushed work.

Jasmine Island changes almost every day.

Of course, this refers to the interior.

On the surface, there is just a long airport runway and a few factories.

However, inside the factories, continuous modifications and improvements are underway.

Compared with a year ago, the interior layout of the factories, the newly added electronic equipment and machinery…

Gave Lin Feng the feeling of a manufacturing plant straight out of a sci‑fi movie.

All of it is built with piles of money!

Lin Feng sighed inwardly.

From groundbreaking to construction, plus all the facilities on Jasmine Island, material procurement, workers' wages, and all sorts of miscellaneous expenses,

have almost reached 500 billion.

Of course, that 500 billion is in their own country's currency.

In this world, how many companies have a market value that can reach 500 billion?

The two roughly fifty‑meter‑diameter oblate‑spheroid Jasmine ships lie in their respective assembly factories.

Their exteriors were finished long ago, and at a glance they look almost identical to Jasmine No. 1 and No. 2.

Because it is the critical moment of assembly, Lin Feng did not request to look inside.

Huang Ziping gave Lin Feng a brief explanation outside.

Compared with the earlier briefing, Huang Ziping's introduction was somewhat more detailed.

Five little kids trailed Lin Feng, eyes wide open, listening to Huang Ziping's explanation.

Afterward, the test‑flight time was announced: December 16, a week later.

If a quicker schedule is needed, the 15th can also be used for the test flight.

After looking around the site, Lin Feng also went to inspect the newly completed astronaut training center.

The place is not large, but the equipment is complete.

There are dedicated machines that can simulate vacuum and weightlessness.

As for space suits capable of EVA, Huang Ziping's side has already mastered the relevant technology.

When the time comes, each of Jasmine No. 3 and No. 4 can be equipped with thirty‑six space suits.

However, in Lin Feng's view, those space suits are still too bulky.

He believes the Americans have already produced specialized lightweight space suits specifically for Enhancers.

And also…

Just as Lin Feng finished speaking, Lin Eleven interjected, "Uncle Huang, where are the space suits for us kids?"

"Yes, yes! We want them too."

Lin Chang'e raised her hand, her face eager.

Lin Baobao, Lin Jingru, and Lin Qingxia also stared with wide eyes, looking hopeful.

Huang Ziping looked at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng smiled, "Then we'll make a set for each of them! By the way, a batch of space suits has been specially developed for Enhancers."

Huang Ziping laughed, "We're already working on it, but for kids…"

Huang Ziping hadn't expected there would be "little astronauts".

Huang Ziping had long undergone Enhancement; his body is far better than before.

Lin Feng certainly does not want such an important subordinate as Huang Ziping to die from the strain of research work.

In fact, before the early‑year Enhancement, a medical exam revealed Huang Ziping had a malignant tumor, and he underwent surgery.

If the Enhancement Agent hadn't appeared, Huang Ziping would probably be lying in a hospital bed now.

After Enhancement, Huang Ziping not only regained a healthy body but also a sharper mind.

Hence Jasmine Island's changes are so dramatic.

In Lin Feng's view, the most important effect of the Enhancement Agent is not the body but the brain.

If scientists undergo Enhancement, the speed of scientific development would increase more than tenfold.

Lin Feng believes that over there, the Americans, and even his own Guo Jia, have already produced a batch of Enhanced scientists.

After obtaining Huang Ziping's consent and quickly manufacturing a batch of little space suits, the five children were overjoyed.

"Running over here, seeing all this, isn't it fun?"

After watching the two Jasmine ships under assembly and the other factories on the island, Lin Feng looked at the five kids and said with a smile.

It was still early morning then.

"Interesting! Now I finally know that human technology is more advanced than we imagined."

Lin Eleven scratched his head and said.

Lin Feng shook his head, "Actually, that's only the surface; whether it's Enhancers or Jasmine‑type anti‑gravity craft, we still haven't grasped the true principles!"

Lin Eleven thought for a moment, then nodded.

The development of the Enhancement Agent is based on Witch Tribe genetics to modify humans.

Without the Witch Tribe's genetic template, this would be utterly impossible.

There are also anti‑gravity aircraft; that technology was developed by a great scientist decades ago.

Now we are merely using modern technology to manufacture it more perfectly.

As for the deeper principles of anti‑gravity, even Huang Ziping, who has studied this field the longest, has not fully figured it out.

Several key formulas are still being constantly calculated and verified!

Lin Feng said again, "If the Witch Tribe had not appeared, given the previous pace of scientific development, a hundred years might not even have produced an Enhancer.

As for the Jasmine… "

Lin Feng suspects that Tesla is actually a time‑traveler.

For example, Huang Ziping is essentially half a time‑traveler.

It's just that this guy remembers what he learned before the jump, and knows nothing else.

Even after Enhancement, he cannot find any information about a past life in his memory.

"The Universe is vast, father, our vitality is far stronger than ordinary people's; I hope to venture into broader realms, see more planets, cosmic wonders, and alien races!"

When saying this, Lin Shiyi's eyes seemed to shine.

The existence of Aliens is already beyond doubt.

Because the Witch Tribe are actually Aliens.

Lin Chang'e's mother, Sister Wu, is a pure Alien.

Come to think of it, Lin Chang'e is also half an Alien!

While Lin Feng was chatting with Lin Shiyi, Lin Chang'e, Lin Baobao, Lin Jingru, and Lin Qingxia felt their heads getting larger and larger…

In the end their thoughts could not keep up at all.

Seeing the four youngsters frowning and looking distressed, Lin Feng stopped discussing scientific and technological matters with Lin Shiyi.

"You four should learn from Lin Shiyi; you see Lin Shiyi has mastered a lot of expertise, and your minds are equally smart, but you must not apply that wisdom to bad ends…"

Lin Feng said, casting a particular glance at Lin Jingru.

Half of that remark was specifically to remind Lin Jingru.

There are many little padded coats—nine in total—and it's hard to guarantee none of them are leaky.

Lin Jingru has already shown the potential to be a troublemaker. Now we need to output lines: English

But that's fate!

Like Yang Caiwei and Qian Miaomiao, they never thought about causing trouble for their own fathers.

But in fact, they did indeed cause trouble for their fathers.

In the following days, although the five youngsters didn't gather to plot anything, they were not bored at all.

The Astronaut Training Center was enough for them to play for several days.

What kept them calm and from running amok was a strong anticipation.

After finishing training, once Jasmine No. 3 and No. 4 complete test flights, they will be able to land on the Moon!

Maybe they could even go to Mars!

When they were having fun, Lin Feng spent the whole day sitting in his office pondering.

Should he continue as things are now, or achieve a major turning point?

Continuing as is means covertly scheming, constantly suppressing Mi Guo's development of Enhancers.

A great turning point would be to fully disclose the technology he possesses.

Then, openly and brightly, appear before the world under a new identity.

Lin Feng feels somewhat conflicted.

If he goes further, everything he now possesses will expand countlessfold.

But the trouble will also increase.

And this current life is going quite well!

No one can threaten his or his family's lives.

There is endless money, and the money keeps generating more money, with wealth constantly rising.

When bored, he can hold big gatherings with his girlfriends and play happily.

On the 15th, the day before the Jasmine test flight, Qi Yao arrived at Jasmine Island.

Lin Feng and Qi Yao were alone together.

In Lin Feng's mind, if he were an emperor, Qi Yao would be, without doubt, the empress.

A noble empress would never play together with the emperor's concubines.

Lin Feng would never have such thoughts.

Clang~

While eating steak, Qi Yao's fork slipped under the table.

Lin Feng, who was deep in thought, was startled for a moment.

Then he crawled under the table.

Qi Yao quickly stood up and darted to the side.

This time the fork fell unintentionally.

"Do you have something on your mind?"

After Lin Feng picked up the fork, Qi Yao asked lightly.

Lin Feng nodded and voiced his thoughts.

Qi Yao thought for a moment, then said lightly, "I think life is pretty good right now."

Lin Feng understood, "Then let's stay as we are, and our family will live happily together!"

Qi Yao let out a "hm".

Lin Feng was no longer conflicted.

So the steak in his mouth regained its flavor.

Only now the red wine on the table had been swapped for Milk.

The notion that red wine beautifies and nourishes the skin is all hype from capital.

Any Alcohol's harmful effects on the human body exceed its benefits.

Of course for Enhancers, Alcohol's side effects are not worth mentioning.

For instance, Qi Yao is drinking red wine.

"Goo‑dong, goo‑dong…"

Lin Feng drained the Milk from the cup in one gulp, handed the cup to Qi Yao, "Another one!"

Qi Yao rolled her eyes.

Then she switched cups, poured a glass of red wine for Lin Feng, "Now there's none, let's drink!"

"Clang~"

Lin Feng's fork fell to the ground.

This time Qi Yao didn't dodge.

"Lin Shi Yi, why are Qi Yao Yiniang and dad eating dinner alone!"

Lin Jingru asked curiously.

It was eight o'clock on the evening of the 15th.

The dining table before the five children was filled with all kinds of seafood.

There were at least twenty varieties.

Moreover, in both size and freshness, even a five‑star hotel couldn't produce them.

Because Lin Chang'e, with Lin Baobao, Lin Jingru, and Lin Qingxia, dived into the sea and hand‑caught them.

Around Moli Island, seafood is never lacking.

Ouyang Moli and Tang Mi, seated at the same table, exchanged a glance.

Then they looked at Lin Shi Yi.

They were curious how Lin Shi Yi would respond.

Lin Shi Yi said calmly, "Mom and dad have the least time together; can't they stay alone for a while?"

"Exactly!"

Lin Jingru nodded and said, "Moli Yiniang and Tang Yiniang have already been with dad for a week.

"Before coming to Moli Island, dad had lived with mom that long."

Lin Shi Yi's reply was proper and conventional, and Ouyang Moli and Tang Mi didn't laugh.

After the five youngsters arrived on the island, they generated many jokes daily.

Especially when they gathered to quarrel, it was definitely funnier than a comic skit.

Lin Shi Yi glanced at Ouyang Moli and Tang Mi.

After being teased a few times about topics they found funny, Lin Shi Yi had taken the lesson.

They certainly didn't want to do comedy anymore.

They are a scientist, not a comedy master.

"Shi Yi, what's your mental age?"

Tang Mi asked curiously.

Lin Shi Yi replied, "About fifteen!"

"What about Lin Chang'e?"

Tang Mi asked again.

Lin Shi Yi fell for it again.

Because in their mind, Lin Chang'e's mental age had already been set.

Without much thought, they answered, "A six‑year‑old child."

Sure enough, as soon as the words left their mouth, Lin Chang'e widened her eyes.

But for the moment Lin Chang'e didn't get angry.

"What about the three of them?"

Tang Mi asked again.

Lin Shi Yi glanced at Lin Baobao, Lin Jingru, and Lin Qingxia.

Lin Shi Yi bluntly said, "Five years old, already at the top."

"Alright Lin Shi Yi, didn't expect you to call us kids!"

Lin Chang'e finally couldn't hold back and stood up.

Lin Shi Yi spread both hands and said, "That's just the fact! Otherwise, you could do a mental‑age test."

Lin Chang'e frowned.

Let's skip the test.

She's not stupid; in professional matters, Lin Shi Yi is always the ultimate victor.

Lin Jingru and Lin Qingxia, the two new members, exchanged a glance.

Although they've been in the team only a short while, they side more with Lin Chang'e.

Because Lin Shi Yi truly isn't someone pleasant to get along with.

It's mainly that sometimes I speak too directly and don't consider things for a moment.

Lin Qingxia's eyes flickered slightly, and she said, "Lin Shi Yi, you're a fifteen‑year‑old boy now; do you have a girl you like?"

In the family's hierarchy, Lin Qingxia is still older than Lin Shi Yi.

Lin Qingxia is the seventh, and Lin Shi Yi is the eighth!

Lin Shi Yi had just started to say that women are troublesome, but he quickly swallowed the words about to slip out, shook his head, and said, "Can we not talk about that?"

This time her reaction was indeed quick.

As soon as the words came out, Lin Chang'e would definitely erupt.

Later, she might get beaten again.

Because it involves gender issues, Moli Yiniang and Tang Yiniang definitely won't help.

Tang Mi smiled at that moment and said, "I heard your grandfather and grandmother found you a little girlfriend!"

"Hmm?"

It wasn't only Lin Shi Yi; even Lin Chang'e, Lin Baobao, Lin Jingru, and Lin Qingxia widened their eyes.

The news was too surprising.

Lin Shi Yi is so young, and he already has a childhood betrothal?

"Tang Yiniang, quickly tell us, who is it actually!"

Sitting beside Tang Mi, Lin Chang'e grabbed Tang Mi's hand and asked anxiously.

Tang Mi played coy, "This one— I won't tell you for now."

After speaking, she exchanged a glance with Ouyang Moli.

In the next few days, Lin Chang'e and the others will definitely pester Lin Shi Yi about this question.

Lin Shi Yi glanced at Tang Yiniang's sly eyes and realized that trouble was ahead for him.

It seems he can only turn to his own mother to get out of this.
