7: Chapter 7: The Noble Young Master of Sichuan, His Plants Have a Major Problem!
"You are being too polite with me, sir. If there is anything you need, just say it, and I guarantee I will get it done!"
Yao Jinyu walked to the window, gently drew the curtains, looked at the bustling neon city in the distance, and patted his chest to guarantee it.
"It is like this. The Panzhihua Observatory in Chuannan discovered a strange extraterrestrial meteorite. After multiple location confirmations, it was found to have fallen in Yuxi Mountain, Shenwan, Guangnan Province.
Yesterday morning, we contacted the local police, fully sealed off Yuxi Mountain, and conducted a large-scale carpet search for the extraterrestrial meteorite. However, it has been over a day now, and there is still no trace or clue."
"Elder Bai, do you mean... someone has already picked it up?"
As a high-ranking regional official, Yao Jinyu had long been in a high position, so he naturally understood the implication in Elder Bai's words quickly. He asked with some speculation: "Is that meteorite very important?"
Yao Jinyu's question was naturally not superfluous; Elder Bai calling him personally in the middle of the night must be an unusual and major event. He just wanted to know how strong this determination was.
"My suggestion—follow the highest confidentiality regulations, follow wartime guidelines, and spare no cost to thoroughly investigate the whereabouts of the extraterrestrial meteorite!"
Hearing the resolute voice from the phone, even a high-ranking regional official like Yao Jinyu could not help but gasp, his body trembling slightly!
What exactly was that meteorite? It actually made Elder Bai make such a great determination to search for it!
"Elder Bai, I hereby represent Guangnan Province and assure you that I will definitely use all the forces at my disposal to find the whereabouts of that extraterrestrial meteorite!"
Although he had many questions in his heart, Yao Jinyu did not ask proactively, but instead seriously assured Elder Bai.
"Hmm, then I thank you for your efforts, Little Yao!"
"You are too polite, sir. This is all as it should be..."
The phone hung up. Elder Bai looked at all the scientists in the verification room hall with burning eyes and said in an irrefutable tone: "From now on, the Panzhihua Observatory will enter a state of full lockdown!
Any incoming or outgoing calls, documents, procedures, personnel, etc., will all be subject to the strictest scrutiny!
Without my order, no one is allowed to make decisions on their own!
Until the whereabouts of the small meteorite numbered TUKR-1204 are found!
Alright, everyone go and organize the data reports for your respective fields. I want to see the most comprehensive simulation analysis in one hour!"
Everyone looked serious and quickly returned to their respective posts. With the coordination of the research assistants in the department, they organized the messy, complex, and obscure data information in an orderly manner...
...
Guangnan Province.
Yao Jinyu put down his phone, thought for a while, and issued the highest emergency order to all departments in the province via landline!
All departments were like clockwork. Under orderly coordination and command, vehicles with flashing lights and sirens were dispatched with full force, urgently rushing to various important nodes.
Highways, township intersections, hotels, and the scene of the incident—Yuxi Mountain in Shenwan City!
Through the all-night efforts of thousands of provincial key personnel, finally, at eight o'clock the next morning, an exciting piece of news was discovered!
A man was livestreaming on the internet in the middle of the night, and the footage accidentally captured the faint, flashing trail of the meteorite just before it fell!
Later, through the analysis of technical experts, they pinpointed the location of the meteorite's fall to within a hundred meters!
Of course, this is a later development.
...
Not long after Yao Jinyu issued the order in the middle of the night.
A mysterious call... was suddenly made from Sichuan Province.
"Hello, it's me!"
"Oh? Young Master Wang, what business do you have calling in the middle of the night?"
"I want you to use internal internet means to find its whereabouts first!"
At the top of a luxurious detached villa, a red-haired The Rich Young Master wearing gold and silver said with a fierce expression.
The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds, then said with some difficulty: "Young Master Wang, this is against the rules. If I do this, I will be caught by others!"
"In this ancient land of the East, my Wang family's word is the rule!"
"...Young Master Wang, you are putting me in a difficult position..."
"After it's done, I will have you promoted by half a rank!"
"Young Master Wang, this is not a question of promotion, but..."
"One rank!"
"Good, deal!"
The person on the other end of the phone immediately changed his attitude and respectfully patted his chest, saying: "Young Master Wang, I will definitely complete your order to Perfection!"
The Rich Young Master picked up the red wine glass on the table, took a sip, smiled evilly, and said: "After finding specific clues, contact me immediately!
Also, don't have any ideas you shouldn't have!
Otherwise, I will wipe out all your friends and family!"
"Yes, yes, yes—!"
"Young Master Wang, please rest assured. Since I have promised you, I will definitely do my best and guarantee that I will not have any inappropriate thoughts!"
"That is for the best!"
The phone hung up, and The Rich Young Master threw the phone onto the sofa.
He then picked up the crimson wine glass and walked to the spacious villa balcony.
He looked up at the bright moonlight, his mouth curling into a cold, sinister smile: "Black Box Spacetime..."
"A mysterious strange object..."
"Such a divine object, only my Wang family—can enjoy it exclusively!!"
The fearless, arrogant laughter echoed on the top floor of this heavily guarded, secluded, luxurious villa.
...
The early sun broke at dawn, and the earth welcomed a new light.
Jiang Jin got up from the bedroom, stretched, and then wore slippers to the bathroom to wash up.
Soon, a breakfast full of color, aroma, and taste appeared on the dining table. Looking at the tempting food, his appetite was greatly stimulated, and he picked up his chopsticks to feast.
Breakfast in Xiangnan is quite solid, unlike the light fare in Guangnan. Jiang Jin did not have the habit of maintaining a special diet, and after eating, he felt his stomach was a little bloated.
After doing all this, Jiang Jin brewed a pot of coarse tea and moved the rocking chair under the pavilion in the courtyard.
Sipping the tea and feeling the slightly moist morning breeze, Jiang Jin lay on the rocking chair, his consciousness entering... the Singularity Universe.
Although only one night had passed in reality, under the hundredfold time flow ratio, the Origin Continent had already experienced fifty days!
"...Not right!"
"The plant stems and leaves seem to be growing very lush and thick, but why are the seeds they bear so small?"
"And they are shriveled and look malnourished?"
Jiang Jin's figure landed on the ten-square-meter plot of land. Looking at the natural scene before him, which was very different from what he had imagined, doubt could not help but well up in his brows.
"Could it be because the difference in the survival environment between the Origin Continent and the real world is too great?"
Jiang Jin turned his gaze to the various small insects under the moist soil.
As it turned out, their survival and reproduction were not significantly affected. On the contrary, due to the lack of "natural enemies," their species population had a trend of overrunning!
"Not right!"
"This is not the reason for the environmental difference!"
Jiang Jin used his hand to stroke some seeds from a few grass ears and found that they were all shriveled. When planted in the soil, the survival rate was not even twenty percent!
This matter was very serious!!
