Interstellar Number One Farmer: I Only Want To Farm!-Chapter 317 - 101: Xiang Qian’s Investigation (Part 3)

"Be careful, don’t rush. This matter is not urgent," Su Xiaocai kept delaying, having a premonition that there was some unknown secret within.

Afterwards, Su Xiaocai painfully transferred a million to Xiang Qian, and then gave two bodyguards protecting Xiang Qian a hundred thousand each, as agreed upon.

The monthly salary for the two bodyguards was fixed, but if Xiang Qian went through a life-and-death situation, she would reward and penalize clearly, providing more compensation to the bodyguards.

Xiang Qian was comforted seeing the glaring zeros; he originally thought that if Su Xiaocai was willing to give him a hundred thousand, he would do this job for life.

Seeing a reward higher than expected, he felt he could wholeheartedly follow Su Xiaocai’s work, much better than working as a detective alone.

Security is assured, and there’s no worry about clients reneging on payments.

"Thank you, boss, I’ll work for you for a lifetime."

Su Xiaocai knew Xiang Qian was a bit money-minded, loyalty needed improvement, but his values were alright, and he had professional ethics; as long as he wasn’t forced into life-or-death situations, he might really work for her for a lifetime.

"Don’t get excited yet, your salary is not fixed. The more you find for me, the more I’ll pay you. Remember, all investigation content is confidential, you cannot disclose it to others."

"Okay, okay, boss, since you’re not in a hurry to investigate your own background, can the two bodyguards and I stop for two or three days at some scenic planets on the way?"

"Do as you please, just give me valuable information in a month."

"Okay then!"

Su Xiaocai walked to the balcony, looking at the vibrant flowers and plants, which she had not interfered with; the drip irrigation pipes were all managed by Xiao Wanzi.

The growth of the two sensitive fruits was very good, showing no signs of wilting.

The reason was merely changing the pots to ones made of special metal, refined from ores bought from the 022 Mechanical Planet last time, with high purity and at great cost.

She detected that such pots emitted a special wavelength of radiation in the middle. Perhaps this radiation was just what the sensitive fruits needed.

Su Xiaocai touched its fruit, which had already shriveled into seeds, soon to harvest matured seeds.

The truth might be hidden in plain sight.

Like peeling layers, more observation, more experiments, surely, like the sensitive fruit, she will eventually discover the secret.

"Thank you, Xiao Wanzi, you’re amazing."

Xiao Wanzi: "Caicai, you’re amazing too! You’re the best kid I’ve ever seen."

Su Xiaocai chuckled, "How many people have you even seen?"

"Then take me to meet more people," Xiao Wanzi said very naturally, "You promised to take me to the mysterious restaurant, you can’t forget."

"Alright." Su Xiaocai looked at Xiao Wanzi and suddenly thought it would be nice if artificial intelligence could have a city of its own, so Xiao Wanzi could live freely.

And not be trapped around humans, only serving humans.

It also needs space to play at any time.

Speaking of this, Su Xiaocai suddenly felt like it could be realized.

Artificial intelligence isn’t human; it doesn’t need the real world to exist.

Returning indoors, she turned on the desk lamp, opened the computer, and picked up a pen to draw.

...

The subsequent impact of the paper attracted not only people often coming to take photos with Su Xiaocai, but also outsiders and companies wanting to do paid consultations.

Su Xiaocai was busy, delivering functional props to Xiang Qian, and needed to make a new simulation pod, as the current simulation pod wasn’t enough to support the subsequent training of Wu Qingqing and others.

Gravity changes, various terrain simulations, and urban rescues were included.

These training projects overlapped somewhat with games, but the original intention of games was, after all, designed for command; to enhance individual soldier strength and comprehensive strength, higher simulation is needed.

She didn’t want to do paid consultations, but today Professor Li called Su Xiaocai to his office, just for this matter.

"I’ll be honest, this was an old friend from outside asking for my help to reach out to you about these paid consultations. I circled these out, as they are relatively important projects that have been stuck at a bottleneck for some time." Professor Li had no choice; several friends who had helped him before had asked for this favor, and he was just conveying the message; he hadn’t promised anything else. He was just an expert in agriculture, and when it came to plants related to the Insect Man field, Su Xiaocai probably had more experience.

"What have you been busy with lately? I’m shameless, if possible, see if you could help. But I will only mention this once, there won’t be a second time." Professor Li didn’t want this student to think he was exploiting his seniority.
