Chapter 327 Jiang Xia Temporarily Resolves the Problem
Back home, Jiang Dong, covered in mud, immediately darted in front of Jiang Xia.
"Boss, look what this is!"
Jiang Dong grabbed a dark pupa in his hand and shoved it into Jiang Xia's nostril.
"Slap!" Jiang Xia reached out and pressed down on the girl's big head.
This girl was stubborn; she just kept pushing forward against Jiang Xia's palm, her short little hands persistently holding the silkworm pupa, aiming it at Jiang Xia's nostrils.
How much do you want to shove this thing in? Jiang Xia sighed.
"Cutworm, belonging to the order Lepidoptera, family Noctuidae. Also known as earthworm, root-cutting worm, etc..." Tsk, getting rational again, this thing should be called the East-West-Northwest Insect.
Before Jiang Xia could change his mind, Jiang Dong, who couldn't get close to Jiang Xia, hurriedly shouted, "Boss, watch out!"
"East!"
Jiang Dong shouted at the silkworm pupa, but the pupa didn't move...
"Why isn't it moving?"
"summer!"
The silkworm pupa remained motionless, and the little girl's expression had already turned grim...
“When you call out, pinch it…” Jiang Xia bent down and gently rubbed Jiang Dong’s cheek.
Paji...
The silkworm pupa burst open in front of Jiang Xia, splashing yellowish liquid all over his face.
Hehe, what a vibrant and youthful time! At this time of year, some people's little bottoms deserve a taste of the cane.
"You brat! Can't you be a little gentler?" Jiang Xia pulled Jiang Dong over, ready to show off his older brother's power.
After a playful fight, an exhausted Jiang Xia collapsed to the ground, while Jiang Dong sat on his stomach, still full of energy.
The little girl pulled out a bunch of "insects from all directions" from her pocket. Those that responded when called were tossed to "Teacher Qin" who was secretly laughing nearby. The ones that didn't respond would turn into a pile of yellow liquid in front of Jiangxia.
Oh well, never mind.
Let bygones be bygones.
A man in his twenties couldn't even handle a brat...
"Hey, this thing looks like it's edible, right?"
"We can't finish it, there's no oil! It'll just fry if we put it in the pot!" Teacher Qin pulled out a brightly colored iron pot from behind her back and shook it apologetically.
Ugh, this is really frustrating. We've been struggling for so long, we don't even have oil left to eat...
Should we ask Uncle Jin Guang to hunt down a few whales and extract their oil? Fish oil, I think, can even cure night blindness, right?
After playing around with Jiang Dong for a while, Jiang Qiu returned covered in dust.
"Hey, did you all go out like dirt rats today?"
Jiang Qiu pouted: "They've all gone to dig tree pits at that newly built stadium. By the way, bro, did your factory make the excavator?"
"Hmm! How about that? Isn't it super cool?"
"It was quite impressive; one shovelful and it'd have a tree pit, super fast. Unfortunately, then some uncles suddenly appeared out of nowhere and drove it away... forcing us to dig the pits by hand again, just like before."
"Wow! Really? Are thugs this arrogant now?"
"No, they said it was from the Ministry of Coal Industry..."
Uh, Jiang Xia remembered the row of tank soldiers that the Ministry of Coal had specifically requested. Well, so that's what they were used for.
Tsk tsk, they're really bold. Aren't they afraid someone will come to their door and chop meat with a cleaver?
"By the way, where's Grandma?"
"Oh, Grandma said she's going back to Jiangjia Village to tidy up the old house..."
Okay, Jiang Xia shook Jiang Dong off himself. The girls have all worked hard, so he should take care of the cooking himself.
The big pot stew is back in style!
Staring at the pressure cooker that was puffing out smoke, Jiang Xia fell into thought again: the chassis of the mini excavator still needs to be made as soon as possible, time is of the essence!
Fight!
At worst, I'll just come back and get sat on by Jiang Dong a couple of times.
Yes, Jiang Xia found that when this little girl made a ruckus, he would lose all rationality; she was practically the perfect antidote to the side effects of the scanner…
Aside from being a little embarrassed...
As long as no one else sees it, it's fine! It doesn't matter to family members.
The plan goes through!
……
Just as Jiang Xia was trying his best to fight against that side effect.
The news from China also sparked international discussion.
What time is it now?
The beginning of the confrontation between the two major camps!
Although it hasn't reached the level of intense conflict that we'll see ten years from now, many contradictions have already become apparent.
Under these circumstances, the tremendous results achieved by a new type of weapon were enough to draw the attention of countries around the world. This was especially true for the country that developed this weapon, which was widely recognized as a backward agricultural nation.
"Ask the Taiwanese authorities if this is true?"
One of the bald eagle's leaders tossed the report aside, appearing somewhat nonchalant.
"Sir! When I reported to you, we already called the authorities, and their reply was..."
"Ok?"
"They said they didn't know the specifics, but two warships did indeed go missing..."
"Ha, a complete mess. How could Congress have been so blind as to support them?"
"Sir, I have a different opinion on this. If you would allow, may I answer you from a different perspective?"
The person in charge became alert, grabbed a corncob and rubbed it, while his other hand reached for the black biubiu in the drawer.
"Say!"
"Mr. Eisen, on behalf of the 'Veterans' Alliance,' I sincerely invite you to join us!"
"Ha! I've always heard about all sorts of secret alliances in the country, but I never expected there to be one right under my nose. Tell me, what do you want? The leadership transition is coming up soon, and the new owner of this house is arriving. There's not much I can do..."
Mr. Eisen waved his hand somewhat listlessly, then looked at the two glaring words on the report.
"China!"
What a magical country! If I hadn't provoked them, I might have been able to stay in this house.
"Mr. Eisen, there's still much you can do. For example, could you launch a research program for a ship-to-ship missile? Or, for instance, we still have quite a few old warships docked in our port?"
"The people in that place still have plenty of funds!"
"Hmm? Ample?" Mr. Eisen sneered, pulling out an invitation from who-knows-where.
"Look at this, this is a ball hosted by that lady, and it's blatantly advertised as a fundraising event. Is this what you call having ample funds?"
"That's right, she raised the money, and in the end, won't it just go towards buying equipment from us? After all, her reputation is pretty intimidating, and she has quite a few followers..."
"And she's holding spoils of war from the victorious nation! They may not be fancy steaks, but they'd be perfect as dessert..."
The visitor gestured exaggeratedly at Mr. Eisen: "I think they'd be willing to pay a little more for their so-called orthodoxy..."
"Okay, those are minor issues, but we do have ship-to-ship missiles, don't we?"
"The AGM-84 harpoon, sir? If you'd seen its performance in battle, you'd definitely kick my ass with your boots! But what I want to talk about is related to it..."
"Speak up, stop beating around the bush. If you're my subordinate, humph!"
"Yes, sir. How about we collaborate with them on this ship-to-ship missile? We can just give them the AGM-84 when the time comes!"
"Ha, you bloodsucking squid, let's just do it this way! Since you're moving out, it's only natural to think about yourself first!"
"As you wish, wise Mr. Eisen."
"Welcome to the 'Veterans' Alliance'!"
