Chapter 1074: Chapter 1074: Star Era Guide (24)
Xiao Jiu’s report time is different from Chuzheng’s. Chuzheng usually chooses to go when it’s almost dark; it’s relatively quiet for Jing Lan at this time.
Jing Lan wasn’t sure whether it was on a whim or something else, but when Chuzheng came over, he didn’t sleep or drink; he actually started teaching.
Ancient Creatures were not unfamiliar to Chuzheng; after all, in other worlds, these little creatures are common knowledge.
Jing Lan had deep research on these things, as Chuzheng flipped through books listening to him, some things were not even in the books or databases.
The two got along ‘harmoniously’ for a while.
“Here, this is for you.”
After finishing today’s lesson, Chuzheng left a box behind.
“What’s this?”
Chuzheng didn’t respond, taking her things and leaving.
After Chuzheng left, Jing Lan opened the box, inside was a vial of light blue liquid…
Spirit Restorative!
Jing Lan grabbed the vial of liquid and got up to chase out, the corridor was empty.
Jing Lan pressed the elevator button, but the elevator kept going down. There was no other elevator on his floor, so Jing Lan took the emergency stairs.
There were students coming and going downstairs, but he didn’t see the person he wanted to.
“Jing Lan, what are you doing?” Professor Wei looked at him in surprise.
At this time, he was actually outside, what kind of wind blew today?
Before Professor Wei understood, he caught a glimpse of the thing in Jing Lan’s hand, his expression changed slightly: “Spirit Restoration Liquid? Where did you get it?”
Jing Lan frowned, didn’t speak, and walked back with the thing.
“I’m talking to you? Where did you get it?”
Professor Wei caught up with Jing Lan, trying to find out where Jing Lan got it from.
Spirit Restoration Liquid is rare, not because no one can concoct it.
On the contrary, anyone who has even slightly studied it can concoct Spirit Restoration Liquid.
The rarity lies in the materials needed.
“I went to get it for you at the last auction, but in the end, what was auctioned wasn’t Spirit Restoration Liquid!”
Jing Lan returned to the office and put the thing on the table.
Professor Wei was still chattering on the side.
“Aren’t you going to use it?”
“No use,” Jing Lan said, “A waste.”
“But it can relieve your symptoms!” Professor Wei exclaimed, “You can’t keep numbing yourself with alcohol, right? Although this can’t restore your spiritual power, it can make you less irritable.”
“Am I irritable?” Jing Lan squinted at Professor Wei.
“…” Professor Wei quickly soothed, “No, no, you have a great temper, in the whole academy, your temper is the best.”
Bam!
Professor Wei quickly went to protect the Spirit Restoration Liquid.
Jing Lan pulled it away and threw it into a bio-safety box that only he could open.
“Be gentle!!” Professor Wei looked with his heart trembling.
This is something you might not find in years!!
Jing Lan sneered, “Ordinary things can’t crush it, the knowledge you learned in school fed to the dogs?”
“…”
Really has a great temper.
–
Dormitory.
Chuzheng called Xiao Jiu down from the game: “Check the Mecha exhibition.”
“Oh.” What’s a Mecha exhibition?
If you don’t understand, you can’t ask, you have to check yourself.
Xiao Jiu scrambled off to look up the information.
Soon she came back: “Boss, a Mecha exhibition is organized by major Mecha manufacturers, about once a year. Besides the military can buy them for combat, those unrelated civilians, that is, individuals, can only buy a Mecha at the Mecha exhibition.”
So for many people, the Mecha exhibition is a long-awaited event.
The main use of Mecha is still combat, so most of them are bought by the military, and other forces also purchase some.
Individuals cannot purchase privately.
To buy one, you have to go to a public exhibition.
Of course, this ‘lack of private purchasing power’ condition only applies to those without power or influence.
If you have power and influence, you can have the manufacturer make your Mecha look like a flower if you want.
[Missy, from this, we learn a truth, money really can do whatever it wants.]
Chuzheng coolly nitpicked: “Power and influence.”
[…]
I don’t want to talk to Missy, Mecha hurts.
Xiao Jiu summarized everything she could find and told it to Chuzheng.
In the end, she curiously asked: “Boss, why are you checking this?”
Chuzheng, the big boss, said solemnly: “To squander some money.”
“…”
Dare not provoke.
There was still some time before the Mecha exhibition, lately, Chuzheng has been going to the auction house, buying Spirit Restoratives at high prices.
She offered high prices, so the auction house was happy to collect them for her.
But this stuff is scarce after all, some people hold onto them just in case, unwilling to let go easily.
After this long, Chuzheng only managed to get the one she gave to Jing Lan.
“Boss, Boss, Teacher Jing Lan is downstairs!!”
The next morning, Xiao Jiu came rushing up with breakfast.
“Hmm?” Chuzheng had just woken up, her voice a little hoarse: “What’s he doing down there?”
“Waiting for you.”
“…” Chuzheng went into the bathroom: “Go call him up.”
“Boss, this is the girls’ dormitory…” Xiao Jiu muttered, upon meeting Chuzheng’s gaze, she immediately went down to call him.
–
“Teacher, please.”
Jing Lan had never been inside a girls’ dormitory, in fact, aside from the Jing Family women, he’d never been in any female’s room.
But compared to entering a woman’s room, the stares in the hallway annoyed him more, so he simply stepped inside.
The dormitory was primarily in light colors—surrounding the room were simulation screens, the style could be adjusted according to personal preference—the things inside should be what was originally there, simple and plain, no personal items could be seen.
“The boss is freshening up, Teacher Jing Lan, please have a seat.”
Xiao Jiu was a little afraid of Jing Lan, staying far away as she offered him the sofa.
Jing Lan’s gaze quickly scanned the room and then returned, sitting on the sofa.
Click—
The bathroom door opened.
The girl came out, perhaps having just washed her face, with some lingering moisture on her face, her hair casually pushed aside. The neckline was slightly loose, revealing her fair shoulder line, her collarbone faintly visible.
“You’re looking for me?”
The girl walked over directly, sat on the sofa opposite him, and asked again.
“Have you eaten?”
Jing Lan didn’t answer, he fished out the Spirit Restoration Liquid, and placed it on the table.
Chuzheng looked up at him.
“This thing is useless to me.”
“Oh, then it’s for you to play with.” Chuzheng said casually, as if it wasn’t a Spirit Restoration Liquid worth a fortune. She asked again, “Have you eaten?”
No matter how irritable Jing Lan was, faced with Chuzheng’s nonchalant tone, he didn’t quite know how to react.
He replied sullenly with a muffled voice: “No.”
“Let’s eat together,” Chuzheng invited him.
Seeing this, Xiao Jiu keenly set the breakfast up, and the aroma immediately spread.
Every time Xiao Jiu orders a little more… because she eats a lot.
So it’s plenty for the three of them.
Xiao Jiu took her portion and sensibly went into the room, leaving space for the two of them.
