“…”
Liang Jiuhui’s expression was complex. Had Han Jin actually found this place?
“How about, you guys use it first?”
Lu Hao, seeing that Liang Jiuhui had no intention of leaving, picked up the Local Tyrant Gold and tossed it beside Liang Jiuhui and Song Sibo.
…
Han Jin came alone, without bringing Han Jiajia. It seemed he knew well that Han Jiajia was prone to causing trouble, especially after learning that Han Jiajia had driven Su Jin’s mother away, he had never shown her a pleasant face.
“Sorry for my sudden visit, I hope I haven’t disturbed you,”
Han Jin squeezed in with a smile on his face past the expressionless Lu Hao, who was at the door.
Lu Hao was speechless. He had beaten him up so badly, why was this man still looking at him with a smile on his face?
“You’re here again,”
Su Jin said as she looked at Han Jin.
“Captain Su, you understand why I’ve come to find you so many times. I know it’s difficult to move your entire family, but I truly hope you will consider it,”
Han Jin said earnestly and then took out a box, continuing, “These are enhancers developed by our Han Family in City B. They can increase a Special Ability User’s level by 1~2 after consumption. If the Heart Talk Team agrees to move to City B, we will supply these enhancers indefinitely. Moreover, we will ensure you have more rights to Crystal Cores and bases than what Liang Jiuhui can offer, you see…”
Lu Hao had no interest in looking at the box, instead, his gaze drifted towards the dining table where he knew Liang Jiuhui was sitting.
Liang Jiuhui: “…”
What did he mean by ‘more than what he could give’?
This Han Jin was really despicable and shameless, even trying to steal his team right before him!
“Sorry, Mr. Han, but we prefer staying here, no matter how many times you say it…”
Su Jin hadn’t finished speaking before she was interrupted by Han Jin.
“How many Crystal Cores does Liang Jiuhui give you? I’ll give you double, no, triple if you agree!”
Han Jin said urgently. He had now learned the true strength of the Heart Talk Team, and he wanted to take the team with him to City B more than ever, where his Han Family desperately needed such a team.
Liang Jiuhui, who was trying not to stand up and point at Han Jin’s nose in anger, suddenly remembered he and Song Sibo were both holding the Local Tyrant Gold and were invisible. To avoid awkwardness on both sides, he held himself back.
Meanwhile, Song Sibo was thoroughly enjoying the pleasures of being an Invisibility Ability User. He looked at his own hands and feet, all of them were truly invisible, along with the fluffy little hand he was holding. This experience was truly amazing!
…
“Mr. Han, I’ll say it again, we will not go to City B to seek development,”
Lu Hao said somewhat impatiently, uninterested in the enhancers and caring even less about more rights, as well as the Crystal Cores, which they could slowly earn themselves. Besides, they were not on the same path.
Han Jin was silent, and while he was more angered now, he still put on a regretful and sad expression and said, “If you change your mind, I’ll be waiting for you in City B.”
“…”
Seeing that no one responded, Han Jin had no choice but to leave awkwardly. He didn’t understand—why were these people not moved by such generous conditions?
If that was the case, he could only return to City B and make other plans…
After Han Jin left, Su Jin called the Local Tyrant Gold over, and Liang Jiuhui and Song Sibo suddenly appeared near the dining table.
“That’s the situation,”
Su Jin said, shrugging her shoulders.
“Brother Liang, when exactly are they leaving?”
Lin Xiuyuan peeled a peanut and tossed it into his mouth as he asked. He had naturally started calling Liang Jiuhui ‘Brother Liang,’ although it was initially a slip of the tongue, but Liang Jiuhui didn’t object—in fact, he found it rather endearing, so he simply accepted it.
“Tomorrow,”
Liang Jiuhui replied.
“No wonder they came today, must have wanted to give it one last try before they leave,”
Lin Cheng also said.
“Everyone, I have ten thousand Crystal Cores here, consider it a little token of my appreciation for your unwavering stance just now,”
Liang Jiuhui’s words almost made Nie Qing spray out the water he was drinking.
Wasn’t this Base Leader too entertaining?
The person who spoke of doubling the payment had just left, and he couldn’t wait to take out another ten thousand Crystal Cores.
Su Jin, as usual, accepted them without any ceremony, even chuckling as she said, “Don’t mention it, we’re not the kind to be dazzled by money.”
“…”
Song Sibo silently complained in his mind, just who was it that grabbed those Crystal Cores so quickly?
Before Liang Jiuhui and Song Sibo left, Su Jin sent them off with lots of braised meat saying it was from the mutant animals they had hunted these past few days, insisting they must try her cooking.
The two graciously thanked her. Whether it was mutant animal meat or whatever, these were all gestures of goodwill from the Heart Talk Team.
Looks like there would be an extra meal tonight.
Liang Wei, seeing his son bring home a bag of braised meat, couldn’t close his smiling mouth as he said, “Tonight we can have a feast with Old Pei and the others.”
“Yes, yes, Su Jin also gave me some peanuts. Let’s all eat together tonight,”
Liang Jiuhui said with a smile.
Due to the increasing shortage of accommodations at the base, upon Dr. Pei and his group’s return, Liang Wei directly arranged for them to stay at their villa. The villa had many rooms and usually only housed him and his three children, so it was somewhat a waste otherwise.
Besides, he was old friends with Dr. Pei and also got along well discussing agriculture with Ren Yingjie, so their living together turned out to be quite entertaining.
Liang Jiuhui and Liang Jiuqing didn’t mind at all. The two were busy with work during the day, but sometimes in the evening they were able to join everyone and even hear about the latest research from a few geniuses in their fields. It couldn’t be more convenient.
“Uncle Liang, Uncle Liang, look, my cabbage seedlings have really sprouted!”
Ren Yingjie excitedly ran in holding a cellphone.
“You grew cabbage?”
Liang Jiuhui was also very surprised; he had seen Ren Yingjie constantly fiddling with gardening ever since he returned, even spending several days staying at the base’s farm. He hadn’t expected that he would actually succeed in growing something.

“Yes! And I didn’t even use the Wood element ability to hasten their growth!”
Ren Yingjie said, eyes gleaming with excitement.
“That’s strange; we’ve had agricultural personnel try numerous times before, and many seeds, even with the help of the Wood Element Ability User, struggled to grow. How did you manage to get yours to grow?”
Liang Jiuhui muttered to himself as he looked at the photo of the lush, green sprout, which appeared to be growing under open-air conditions.
“Uncle Liang, Officer Liang, you must have heard of two terms before, ‘natural selection,’ ‘survival of the fittest,”
Ren Yingjie said, grateful for the advice from the old farmer he had met at Xing Taian’s base during a visit with Su Jin. That was when he discovered it.
They had been approaching their research in the wrong direction all along.
