Chapter 1506 and me
"Aunt Virginia, I have a serious and serious relationship with Claya. Please rest assured that I will love her more than I love myself." He felt that if he had not communicated in English, replaced by Chinese, or the environment before traveling through the era before, he would have never been able to say the above words fluently.
At this time, apart from the promise, how else can he answer? Do you ignore Virginia's complaints? Or do you want to patiently tell the other party about his experience in the Tianchao Star Zone and use facts to prove that he is not a "promiscuous" guy, but he is really in the world and can't help himself?
Virginia stared at his face for a while before nodding and said, "Well... I believe you, Claya has told you what you did before."
Ten thousand grass mud horses floated in Tang Fang's heart. Although this description is a bit disrespectful, it is undeniable that it can perfectly describe his current mood.
She clearly found out from Claya what practical actions she had taken, but she still had to ask in front of her... No, she should say that she would beat her up and earn some face for Claya. This is almost like telling him, "Your wife has someone in her family, don't try to bully her."
Of course, Virginia's approach made him speechless and helpless. It is undeniable that she has a good heart. I think she has spent a lot of time understanding Chinese culture and has just done very oriental behavior in front of me.
"Haha... Aunt Virginia, you contacted me this time just to remind me to treat Claya well."
"Of course not." Virginia looked down at the pda screen and said, "The meeting location has been changed to 6.3 light years from the Levia star system, and the time has been delayed by three weeks. Well, I'll send you the coordinates immediately."
"Three weeks of delay? What's wrong?" He had clearly planned his schedule, but he didn't expect that Virginia suddenly told him that the meeting time would be delayed for three weeks, which would undoubtedly disrupt Miss Emma's arrangements.
"There was some minor problem with Bill Carter and Krysaud. I sent a call yesterday and said that I might be a few days late."
"Small situation? Is it serious? Just open your mouth if you need help."
"Don't worry too much. It is said that the Imperial Navy is often mobilized. Bill Carter and Krysaud decided to bypass the dangerous areas out of caution, which undoubtedly took some time."
After hearing what she said, Tang Fang didn't say much, thinking that the meeting would be postponed for three weeks. Anyway, he still had a lot of troublesome things to deal with, such as how to deal with the experimental subjects contained from the Omega Space Station, such as how to tell Miss Fei? Wenli about the cruel reality... and the matter of Nova.
"Okay, since you said that." He nodded and said nothing more.
At this moment, the light and shadow of the big screen flashed, and a big bearded man squeezed into the range of the camera...
"Virginia, you scared him... Be careful that he will take a detour when he sees you in the future." The person who spoke was Marion, who was still on the channel where Virginia helped Claya hit Tang Fang just now.
After saying this, ignoring the slight discomfort on Virginia's face, Marion turned his head to look at Tang Fang: "Don't be afraid, she is just a guy who is strong outside and the other person. The previous words are all to fool you."
Well, Tang Fang has learned what it means to cheat his teammates today. This is him at the scene and recognizes Marion's face. If it were someone else, he wouldn't believe that the bearded man in front of him was the old Marion Duncan, the spiritual leader of the Garcia rebel army who made Colclaf Stewart sleepless at night.
"Old guy, didn't you tell you in advance not to interrupt my conversation with him?"
These two guys who broke each other are really a perfect match. Tang Fang complained in his heart, responded to the two people ahead with a smile like spring breeze, and watched them make trouble quietly... This is the best countermeasure to adhere to neutrality.
Marion turned a deaf ear to Virginia's shouting, and suddenly raised his hand behind him: "Look at what this is?"
When Tang Fang heard this, he saw a wine bottle standing in the center of the screen, with a white bottle body, a red streamer, a bright flying flag, and a capital lettering of moutai.
"Mao...tai? Maotai liquor?!" He looked speechless: "Where did you get it?"
Since the desolation of the earth, many once famous companies and cultural heritage have been lost in the long river of history. Like some wineries in China, old cellars and base wine have basically been destroyed. Even though many companies have been working hard to survive for more than 200 years and try to rebuild their former glory, they can't resist the erosion of time. A large number of companies with historical heritage have disappeared under the trend of the times.
Even if famous liquor companies like Maotai are stubbornly preserved, their products are very different from those of the Earth civilization period, and it is difficult to restore their former taste.
I really don’t know where Marion got this kind of thing. Judging from the production date at the seal, it is clearly the years before the earth was abandoned. Well, if it is true... it is really a bottle of old wine worth tens of thousands of gold.
Although he didn't drink much, he also knew the name of Moutai. It can be said that he was the king of national wine in the previous era before he traveled.
Marion is an old alcoholic, and he had a deep understanding of this when he was in Crotan. But he didn't expect that the guy joked before that he would definitely treat him well this time, and now he has indeed brought out enough old wine.
"I'm not afraid to tell you..." The bearded man approached the camera and said, "I emptied Prince Walker's cellar. I found a bottle of white and a bottle of green. The ones were drunk by me, and the ones were kept for you... The bottle of green tasted great, well, the chicken on the outer packaging was also good."
Prince Walker and Tang Fang are not unfamiliar with Prince Walker. At that time, he, Aros and Hausen came out of Planet 5 and were summoned to the Thunder Fleet to participate in the Battle of Name Star. The Thunder Fleet was the armed forces of Prince Walker. Later, he returned to the Megall star system. Tester led the Kaleidoscope Fleet to encircle him and was beaten by the Ipsilon Relay Station. Then in the Monya Empire, the war between the Sulu Empire and the Star Covenant broke out. Tester made him kick his butt heavily, and the Kaleidoscope Fleet was almost destroyed.
"Chicken? Zodiac Moutai?" Tang Fang pointed at Marion and said, "What a prodigal son, that's for collection."
Marion was very confused about his words: "Isn't wine just for drinking? Collection? Is it a bottle? Is it a favorite? I don't think it looks so popular."
"Uh." Tang Fang didn't know how to refute him. Speaking of which, isn't the drink of wine existed for drinking it?
"You actually used the Lyra-class special service ship I gave you to do wine stealing." He changed to a complaint.
The Lyra-class special service ship is a Morning Star casting exclusive special service ship developed by Eiger Statman and Rory Swan, based on the battleships used by the Deep Diver Fleet, integrated into the science and technology of StarCraft humans. It has high maneuverability and secrecy and is suitable for infiltration operations behind enemy lines, intelligence collection, front-line reconnaissance and other tasks.
The new Deep Depth Fleet, which is well known to the people of the Hillenbel region, is specially modified from the Lyra-class special service ship.
After the first batch of Lyra-class special service ships left the factory, they went to the Phoenix Empire. After the second batch of Lyra-class special service ships were given to Marion Duncan by him to help the Garcia rebels fight against the Monya Empire Navy.
What he didn't expect was that the old guy actually used this fleet to rob Prince Walker's wine cellar.
Marion didn't care about his complaints and said, "Do it with your means, do it with your means..."
What else can he say now? When he meets such a funny guy... he can only choose to accept it.
"You can't drink this bottle with greed, you must keep it well."
Marion laughed and said, "Don't worry, even if I bit off my tongue so greedy, I will never move the gifts I have prepared for you."
Tang Fang shook his head and refused to look at him, looking at Virginia and said, "Those years... have made you really suffer."
"Who said no..." On this point, she agreed with Captain Tang's point of view very much.
After saying this, Virginia said goodbye to him and then pressed the abort key. During this process, Tang Fang heard Marion proudly say: "A bottle of Moutai is exchanged for a fleet. I am really a business genius."
He kneaded his forehead with his hands and was speechless to the leader of the rebel army. No wonder those who were familiar with Marion smiled when they said this. With this personality in front of outsiders, who would believe that he was the famous Marion? Duncan.
However, if we look at it from another perspective, perhaps it is precisely because of his approachableness, laughter, scolding, and optimism and cheerfulness that he condensed people's hearts and boosted his will, allowing the Garcia rebels to move forward in the darkness where the light of dawn is almost invisible and persist until today.
This is the unique personality charm of the bearded man, and it has a very special infectious power. He deserves such an adjective.
Speaking of which, the two have different personalities, one of them is a bit the same. Marion Duncan has a capable female assistant Virginia, and he also has a capable female assistant Kellyana.
Virginia is always unhappy with Marion Duncan’s unreliable, and Kellynia always complains about his lack of home.
"Commander, you've left me." At this moment, the sound of his mind scared him. After careful look, he found that Miss Emma, who was sorting out the information obtained from the Zizai Tian system, was looking at him with a serious look, as if this was a major event that was about life and death.
"Emma, scary people can be scary." He protested loudly.
"Commander, I'm not a human." She explained seriously. Even though she had already walked out of the system space and obtained an Ipsilon body, she still did not establish the perception that "I am a human being" and was still at the stage of "I am an artificial intelligence".
"Okay, okay, okay, you're not a human... you're a robot." He was helpless and frustrated about this. Because Miss Emma showed signs of moving closer to Karenia's goblin who cares about everything and worrys about everything.
Emma very much recognized his definition. There was a light flowing around her hands. It was not the energy from her body. It was the electromagnetic waves radiated by various wireless devices of the bridge, or various data, but now it has become the energy circulation in her palm, reflected in the light blue pupils.
This is the special ability given to her by the Ipsilon body... With this ability, she can respond more freely to changes in the external environment and control various parameters of the Minotao-class battleship.
In other words, Miss Emma today is the strongest ship officer in history, just like edi to Joker in the mass effect, and Cortana to the Chief of the Halo.
Of course, his personality is a thousand miles apart from Joker, and it is difficult to have any intersection with the character of the Chief Secretary.
At this moment, Hausen and Churchill next to him looked at each other and muttered in a low voice: "What did he say just now? Is this little sister Ipsilon a robot?"
Churchill did not complain that he used the word "sister" and said with a wicked smile: "Our Captain Tang's taste is getting more and more tricky."
"That's not... I'm used to eating vegetables and tofu, so I have to try a fat stomach and fat intestines to be called life, right?" Hausen said: "Don't forget that there is a big star in the cabin."
Before he finished speaking, an electronic pen hit his head and landed on the ground. Then Tang Fang shouted in anger: "Damn it, don't think I don't know what you are talking about."
Hausen rubbed the place where the electronic pen hit, with a sad expression on his face: "Then how do you punish me? Are you wearing women's clothing?"
Tang Fang was speechless and had nothing to say. Since the battle outside Phoenix City opened up a new world for Hausen, this guy's shameless foundation has become more and more speechless.
……………………
When Captain Tang was hesitating whether to use this time to go back to the Tianchao Star Zone to find Abathur to deal with the spirits from the Zizai Tian system, a situation occurred in the Phoenix Empire that caused an uproar in the entire Hillenbel region.
Marlow Smith's plan to promote the Equality Act encountered great resistance, and middle-level officials adopted soft boycotts of orders from the decision-making level and put the issued documents on the shelf... This is still a better situation. Those who exploited and enslaved Morris slaves to obtain huge amounts of wealth and power constantly used their disguisers to provoke trouble, create confrontation between Morris slaves and civilians in the field of rights, form a new class opposition, and bring a thick haze to the Phoenix Empire, which had just ended the civil war.
This situation is very embarrassing. If it is a boycott by the top leaders, Marlow Smith can attack them directly. If it is a boycott by the grassroots, at most it can be dealt with a group of people, and it can be replaced by progressive people, or even the best among the Morris Nu... After all, not every Morris Nu is stupid. If you have to choose carefully, you can always find some of them.
However, it is precisely this kind of middle-level officials who are neither up nor down who have real power in their hands. They have no way to replace them with drastic measures. It will bring about systematic political turmoil and will not be able to firmly control them under their noses, making them afraid to make small moves.
