After placing the one he was holding at Fang Zhao's feet, Curly Hair rushed back to the field and brought back another one in the blink of an eye.
Fang Zhao took out a glove and put it on. He picked up the thing by his feet and shook it a few times. "It's a little different."
Fang Zhao placed the two that Curly Hair had brought back on the ground. Even if these two hadn't been smashed to death by Curly Hair, they were at least half-dead. Song Ping was standing guard at the side with some tools. Song Ping wasn't soft-hearted when dealing with pests.
Mitisy squatted down to observe the new species on the ground curiously.
Woo Tianhao watched as Curly Hair went to catch pests again. His hands itched to give it a try.
Song Ping saw that everyone was unwilling to give it a try and said, "Go on. Be careful not to step on the crops."
"Understood!" Woo Tianhao specially went to the warehouse and rummaged through it for tools he found useful before rushing over to the field.
Zaro followed suit. He took some farming tools that he didn't even know what they were and ran to the fields to join in the fun.
Barbara found a stool for herself. After wiping it a dozen times, she sat there elegantly. Going down to the field to catch pests wasn't something a young noble lady like her would do.
Half an hour later.
Woo Tianhao tumbled a few times and finally caught one with great difficulty. He even destroyed a few crops in the process. Mitisy was concerned about the plants in the field. He couldn't move his hands and feet and didn't manage to catch a single one. Zaro didn't care about the plants in the field, but he wasn't as experienced as Woo Tianhao. It looked more like he was being played by pests rather than weeding out pests.
Seeing this, Song Ping hurriedly called the others back. If this continued, who knew how many plants would be harmed? The ones in the field had been planted with great difficulty.
Compared to Woo Tianhao's performance, Song Ping looked at Curly Hair, who was running back with an unknown number of pests in his mouth.
If he hadn't tried it himself, Song Ping would have thought that pests were so easy to catch!
Woo Tianhao looked at the one he had caught and then at the ones Curly Hair had caught. He had no choice but to admit that he wasn't even comparable to a dog. But looking at Mitisy and Zaro … hahahaha, they aren't even comparable to me!
Woo Tianhao immediately felt comforted.
Song Ping looked at Fang Zhao enviously. "So powerful, he must be a Muzhou dog!" He had been eyeing the working dog breeds bred in Muzhou for a long time. He had heard that they were very impressive. It was a pity that it was too difficult to apply for them here, and they could not compete with those from the big military districts.
"Hahahaha, you guessed wrong!" Woo Tianhao laughed heartily. "That is a Yanzhou dog!"
Woo Tianhao stretched out two fingers. "It's worth 200 million."
Song Ping, who had been prepared to borrow Fang Zhao's dog, shuddered and gave up on the idea. He couldn't afford it! What if he accidentally spoils it? How much would that cost?
In less than half an hour, Fang Zhao had laid out a small area on the ground in front of him. It was filled with the pests that Curly Hair had caught. After picking up another one, Curly Hair didn't run out again.
"That's all for now." As Fang Zhao spoke, he took advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was on the pests on the ground to quickly shove something that seemed to be the tip of a pest's tail into Curly Hair's mouth.
You don't even know how to lick it clean!
Song Ping's attention was completely drawn to the pests on the ground. He did not notice Fang Zhao's movements. At this moment, he was both frustrated and happy.
"… These are already not easy!"
Song Ping wondered if he should award Curly Hair with a Pest Exterminator Medal as he watched the creatures that had wreaked havoc on the fields on normal days.
Song Ping went to the warehouse to look for tools. He picked out a fat one and dissected it. He explained its body structure to Fang Zhao and the others and proved that it was because of its body structure that it could move nimbly in the sand. Under normal circumstances, it was very difficult to catch. Curly Hair was an exception.
After dissecting it, Song Ping agreed with Zaro and Woo Tianhao's suggestion to not waste resources and make the best use of them. Song Ping roasted all these pests.
There wasn't much meat and it didn't taste good.
Eating was secondary. Taking pictures was the main point.
Woo Tianhao and the others took many pictures and were waiting to go online to show off on their social media platforms.
After that, Song Ping also introduced them to some small factories. Of course, there were definitely more factories on Planet Bu than these. There were still some that couldn't be shown to them. This included many things that Song Ping told them, which might not be completely true.
Fang Zhao was well aware of this.
For example, the vehicles and other machinery used on the base didn't require petroleum as an energy source. But what about other things? What about the chemical industry?
The smell that Zaro had asked about when he had just arrived at the base was related to those.
However, Fang Zhao saw that the people of Bu Base didn't explain and didn't have any intention of explaining, so Fang Zhao pretended not to know.
There were too many confidential things involved. The chemical industry, military, and many other things weren't open to the public. Planet Bu wasn't an exception. Every base was the same. They would only show visitors the most basic things. The rest wasn't something that outsiders could come into contact with. How could the things that Song Ping had shown them be the only things that could protect this planet and be stationed here for a long period of time?
"Wow! What's that?! "Woo Tianhao's eyes lit up as he pointed at a vehicle parked in a warehouse.
"It's a vehicle used by the soldiers stationed nearby to transport small goods," Song Ping explained.
"It looks a little like the dune buggy we used to play at the beach some time ago, right, Zaro?" Woo Tianhao asked.
"It looks a little like it, but it's loaded with weapons." Zaro looked at the equipment on the vehicle and touched the wide wheels. "The wheels are different from the ones we used before."
"It looks even more impressive! Big Brother Ping, what is this vehicle called? " From Woo Tianhao's point of view, this sort of vehicle should be named something wild or mighty like wild dog, wild bull, or T-rex, right?
"We call it 'Little Electric Donkey,'" Song Ping said.
"… Electric scooter? Little Electric Donkey it is then. Can I try it out? "Woo Tianhao rubbed his hands.
"Sure." There were five vehicles in the warehouse. Song Ping locked the weapons systems on the vehicles before letting them use them.
Woo Tianhao and Zaro were both veterans. They drove the vehicle out and started running in the desert.
After Mitisy consulted Song Ping, he slowly drove the vehicle out of the warehouse.
"Fang Zhao, you …" Song Ping watched Mitisy drive off and was about to ask Fang Zhao when he saw Curly Hair jump into the vehicle.
"Uh … You can bring the dog along without any worries?" The vehicle didn't have any protective covers. What if the vehicle jolted the dog out? It was 200 million!
Fang Zhao glanced at Curly Hair, who was sitting on the cargo seat and wagging his tail, and told Song Ping, "It's fine, he's not afraid."
Song Ping: "…" But I'm afraid!
As he watched Fang Zhao drive off, Song Ping felt as though his heart was hanging by a thread.
Sighing, Song Ping glanced at the last special guest in the warehouse.
Barbara stretched out her hand that had a ring on it, adjusted her flowery sun hat, and put on her sunglasses. She smiled elegantly and said, "I'm taking a walk nearby."
A young lady from a noble family wouldn't drive such a violent vehicle!
Watching Barbara lift her skirt and leave with her bodyguards, Song Ping sighed again and got the soldiers to follow and protect the five special guests.
Fang Zhao drove out. He didn't race like Woo Tianhao and Zaro. Instead, he maintained a moderate speed and surveyed his surroundings. Further ahead, there wasn't a single plant as far as the eye could see.
Gusts of wind blew past, stirring up large amounts of sand.
Curly Hair stuck out his tongue and licked the sand playfully.
About 20 minutes later, they received a notification from Song Ping.
"Emergency notification. We have to return. There's a storm approaching."
Fang Zhao didn't delay after receiving the notification. He turned the vehicle around and drove back.
Zaro and Woo Tianhao had run far away, but because of the high speed of the vehicle, they returned quickly and arrived ahead of Fang Zhao.
However, when he stopped the car, Zaro showed off his amazing drifting parking skills.
A beautiful arc streaked past, and Song Ping, Barbara, and the others who were standing there were blown up by the sand.
Song Ping was fine. He was already used to it. Every time he went out, he would be covered in sand. Barbara couldn't take it anymore. She let out a loud cry and patted the sand off her body. There wasn't any place to change, and she hadn't brought any clean clothes. She looked like she wanted to kill someone.
Seeing that a commotion was about to break out, Song Ping hurriedly diverted her attention. "The wind is getting stronger. We have to leave quickly. Get in the car!"
The electric donkey entered the warehouse, and it was locked. The party hurriedly drove off.
After driving for a while, Barbara cleaned the dust off her face in front of the mirror and noticed that one of the rings on her hand had fallen.
"My diamond ring!" Barbara shouted.
Every accessory Barbara wore was custom-made, and the jewels hanging from them were also expensive. Barbara liked the design of the rings the most. They were all unique.
She searched the vehicle anxiously but couldn't find it.
"It must have fallen off when I was patting the sand off my clothes! It was always on my hand before that! "Barbara glared at Zaro with a murderous look.
Song Ping felt his head hurt even more. The things that this bunch of little ancestors wore weren't cheap.
"Then should I send someone back to look for it?" It was impossible for everyone to turn around and go back to look for it. They could only predict the speed at which the desert's climate changed, but they couldn't be completely accurate. They had always been prepared in advance. What if they went back now and something unexpected happened?
Barbara looked at the weather chart on the screen and said with a gloomy face, "No need. Let's return to base first!"
It was too risky to go back now. She was distressed that she had lost the ring, but she wouldn't let the soldiers risk their lives to help her find it.
"If I lost it, then I lost it. Zaro will compensate me!" Barbara's eyes were cold, and she glared daggers at Zaro.
Zaro was so angry that he almost jumped out of his seat. "You lost it yourself. What does it have to do with me? Look at who's wearing such fancy clothes and so many accessories! Pretentious! "
"If you didn't have eyes and threw sand all over me, would I have lost my precious ring?!"
"Ha! Then it must have been your ring that gave you the chance to slip away! Look, why didn't you lose your other rings? "
Song Ping was getting a headache from all the bickering. Fortunately, Barbara didn't insist on going back to look for it, and everyone returned safely to base.
The two were still bickering after entering the base.
"How about this. Let's wait for the storm to pass before we go back to look for it," Song Ping said. Actually, he also knew that in that kind of place, the chances of finding a small ring after the storm had passed were slim to none.
"Tch, it's just a small ring. Look at how stingy she is." Zaro's mouth twitched.
"Diamond ring! The only, big, diamond, ring in the world! "Barbara emphasized.
Zaro thought of something and changed the topic. "The only one in the world, right? Wait! "
After saying this, Zaro went back to his room for a while, then came out and threw a box at Barbara. "Compensation!"
After throwing the box, Zaro quickly went back to his room and locked the door.
Barbara looked at the box that Zaro had thrown at her warily. She stood back and let her assistant open it.
In the room, her manager asked Zaro curiously, "What's in that box? There's really a diamond ring? "
Zaro looked as if he had gotten his revenge and replied, "Why would she want a big diamond ring? Just give her a big garlic. And it's planet Wai's special garlic, the only one in the world. Even I can't bear to eat it. "
Manager: "…" Are you courting death?
In the rest area for the program team staff.
The director was holding a cup of hot tea as he discussed the script with the others. He did not expect these important guests to follow the script completely, nor did he expect to give them any personality settings. He only hoped that they would follow the general outline of the script.
Didn't General Renault say so? Let Zaro come over and suffer a little.
Feeling the sandstorm, eating vegetarian for a period, and experiencing the hardships and dull life here was considered tough for this bunch of rich young masters.
"How are things over there?" the director asked a staff member.
"Seems … okay," the person said, a little weak.
"What kind of answer is that? If it's okay, then it's okay. If it's not okay, then it's not okay. What do you mean by 'seems okay'? "The director wasn't satisfied with the staff member's perfunctory reply.
The staff member didn't argue and showed the director the information he had received today.
A series of photos came into view.
In the first photo, the five special guests were surrounding a simple table, watching Colonel Song Ping dissect a creature on the table. It was said to be a pest in the farmland.
In the second photo, the five special guests were surrounding a large grill. On top of the grill were pests that had been cleaned up. Even through the photo, one could hear the sizzling sound of oil and the aroma of roasted meat.
The program team staff swallowed their saliva after a whole day of vegetarian eating.
Further on, there were photos of Zaro and the others racing excitedly in the desert. They even made silly peace signs to the camera. Even the dog beside Fang Zhao happily stuck out its tongue and licked the sand.
The program team staff who hadn't fully adapted to the environment and had been cooped up in the base all day: "…" How envious.
"Is this considered finding joy in hardship?" a staff member asked weakly.
Director: "Hehe."
How is it hardship?!
It really looks like a vacation. Everyone is having so much fun!
If this goes on, they won't be able to complete General Renault's mission.
Patting the script in his hands, the director regained his confidence.
"Let them relax first. Starting tomorrow, we will follow the program team's arrangements. Those who can move, move. We will start shooting ahead of schedule! "
