After returning from the car, Eagle sat on his chair with a tired face.
He no longer had the strength to curse. After all, he was already an 80-year-old eagle.
"Tell me…"
He opened his eyes and looked at the people beside him.
"…Can we make this kind of plasma thruster?”
He was looking at the representatives of Ying-chan's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Skunk Works, and several other major aerospace research and industrial giants.
The group of people looked at each other. Then, one of them said,
"Boss, we've already started researching and developing the plasma thruster from Rabbit's family a long time ago. However, due to funding problems, the progress has been slow.”
" Same for us. We had this idea ten years ago and even tried to make a sample, but we didn't have enough funds, so…"
"On our side…"
These people were talking one after another. Eagle, who was sitting on a leather chair, rubbed his temples.
He understood now. These people were all here for money!
It was even possible that they had never studied this aspect at all. They were all lying.
But it didn't matter. He had to think of a way to get the money first.
When the money was in place, he would stuff a portion of it into his pocket, the shareholders would stuff a portion into their pockets, and the rest of the money would be used to deal with the situation. It would be best if he could make it, but if he couldn't…then so be it!
Could it be that he could kill all of their eagles?
Eagle was well aware of this, but he had no choice. Besides…what did this have to do with him?
He was still waiting to work as a consultant for a large investment institution after he left office.
After all, ever since the head of a former Eagle who liked to ride in convertibles was shot, everyone clearly realized one thing-in the Eagle Chan family, one shouldn't take things too seriously. For the sake of the country and the people, he could just say it to fool those people who had been made fools by happy education. Only real money and money were worth pursuing.
"Alright, I'll explain this to the parliament and try to get them to allocate funds for you.”
After sending everyone away, the old eagle sniffled.
"This is bad…He wants to make it big again…"
…Dividing line…
In the blink of an eye, it was the end of autumn.
Although winter was about to arrive, the temperature did not drop much. In fact, because of the presence of the autumn tiger, it made people feel that it was still midsummer.
At night.
Sun Xianyun and Lex were lying side by side on a recliner in the courtyard.
Because the weather was still relatively hot, both of them wore relatively cool clothes.
Sun Xianyun was wearing shorts and a short-sleeved shirt, while Lex was only wearing a thin, dark purple muslin shirt. Through the muslin shirt, one could vaguely see her close-fitting clothes.
Holding the tablet in his hand, Sun Xianyun casually browsed the news on the Internet. Beside him, Lex was peeling the orange peel. After the peel was peeled, he gently tore off the flesh and fed it to Sun Xianyun.
At a certain moment, Sun Xianyun's phone suddenly rang.
He picked up his phone and looked at it. Then, his expression became complicated.
It was his father.
Sun Xianyun didn't know what to say about the family matters.
As he became more and more closely bound to the country, the number of missions he carried out increased. Sooner or later, his existence would be more or less known to the outside world.
Although it was impossible for all the news to be made public, Sun Xianyun's family definitely could not hide the fact that he was working for the country.
There was no need to hide it. After all, this was a matter of supreme glory and something that the family could be proud of.
The higher-ups had also taken this into consideration.
As the country's treasure, everything about Sun Xianyun had to be arranged properly. There could not be any problems.
If an accident happened because of family reasons, they would have nowhere to cry.
Therefore, after consulting Sun Xianyun's opinion, the country began to arrange for people to contact his family and secretly told Sun Xianyun's parents that their son was now carrying out a secret mission, just like the group of people who had hidden their identities and silently contributed to the country.
What mission couldn't he say?
He couldn't tell her the location.
He couldn't say when he would leave or when he would return.
The only thing he could rest assured about was that Sun Xianyun wouldn't be dead forever.
At first, his parents did not believe him. However, when the local chief, the local military officer, and even the higher-ups of the military came to their door and tried to persuade them, Sun Xianyun's parents finally accepted this fact.
Their son had already walked to a place that they could not see at all.
This phone call was the first call his father made to Sun Xianyun after he found out about this.
"Hello, Dad?"
"Xianyun…"
His father's voice came from the phone.
"Are you alright?" asked his father after a moment of hesitation.”
"I'm fine. Don't worry, Dad. I eat well and sleep well."
"Alright, your mother and I won't be by your side. You have to take care of yourself. Don't work too hard. Rest more when you can…"
"…Don't worry about the family. Your mother and I are fine…"
His father's voice made Sun Xianyun's heart clench.
He knew that his father must have misunderstood something.
He must have thought that he was just like those nameless heroes back then, eating sand in the desert.
"Dad, don't worry." Sun Xianyun sighed and said. Although I can't tell you the exact situation, my life is very good. I'll be able to come back this year for the new year.”
"Hmm…Ah? You can come back for the New Year?"
"That's strange. Why can't he come back for the new year? You can even get through to me when you call me. How do you think I'm doing? By the way, what did they tell you and Mom? Why do I feel like I'm about to die heroically…"
"Uh…Haha, it's good that you're back. It's good that you're back. When the time comes, I'll ask your mom to make your favorite sausage. Oh right, you don't have to force yourself. Dad and Mom won't ask you what you do. We…"
Sun Xianyun was helpless when he heard that his father was still a little worried. He hung up the phone, took a photo of himself with his phone, and sent it to his father via V-mail.
A few seconds later, his father's phone rang again.
"Brat! Is there a woman lying next to you?？Is that your girlfriend?？？”
Sun Xianyun: "…???"”
He quickly went back to look at the photo, only to realize that he had accidentally taken a corner of the dark purple muslin dress of the Legion.
"No, Dad, I showed you the photo to reassure you. I didn't eat sand and my life is good. Why are you paying attention to strange things?”
"I don't care! It doesn't matter how you are now. I don't care if you eat sand. You can come back for the New Year, right? Bring that girl back for your mother and me to see!”
"…Oh, pfft!"
Alright, now she really had to pretend to be his girlfriend.
