When Yang Sen saw that it was about time, he invited Ren Baqian, "Mr. Ren, it's rare to have you come by. Will you stay for lunch?"
"There aren't many opportunities to have a meal paid by the state, but I don't know whether it'll be delicious." Ren Baqian rubbed his nose and laughed.
"It might not necessarily satisfy you, but it shouldn't taste bad." Yang Sen smiled.
"What about Miss Lin?" he asked after looking at Lin Qiaole, who had fallen asleep after she entered the room.
"Don't worry about her. Just let her sleep here." Ren Baqian shook his head after turning to look at her.
After having a special meal at the Messier 87 department's cafeteria, he felt that the food didn't taste as good as his own chef's cooking, but it wasn't too bad.
The duo ate, chatted, and Ren Baqian learned more things from Yang Sen. He also casually agreed to bring back a few fork-horned cows and jumping goats to study and breed.
After all, he often brought meat to the martial arts centers in the past and occasionally brought some for the welfare of his disciples, depending on their level. These meats were excellent for essence qi supplementation and superior to any medicine.
At the end of the day, Ren Baqian learned two important things from Yang Sen.
First, several new elements were discovered from the items that he brought back, and they had made a major breakthrough in material science.
The laboratory had developed a metal that could grow.
In some respects, it could even be said that the metal was a living object. Even though it was still in the research stage, this metal could prove to have tremendous use.
Second, there was also considerable progress in mind control technology.
For example, like in previous online game novels, people could directly play games through the output and input of brainwave signals by simply lying in a gaming pod or wearing a helmet.
This was the legendary second world.
Another example would be people simply using their consciousness to control the movement of a vehicle, the flight of a plane, or even the firing of a weapon… Everything could be manipulated by the consciousness.
These were just two simple uses.
However, no matter which one of these two functions was put to use, it would bring a storm to the world.
It could be said that this was a piece of technology that marked an epoch, something that all the countries in the world dreamed of.
Here, they now had this technology.
"Are you interested in it? The nation can authorize you to own a mind control technology company," Yang explained slowly.
After hearing his words, Ren Baqian pondered for a little bit. Since Yang Sen said this, someone must have already explained it to him before.
There was no doubt in the prospect of this technology. Ren Baqian could consider this as putting money directly into his hands.
"What are the conditions?"
"As you said, over the past few years, you have given the nation a lot of things. This can be considered a reward for you! After all, the nation will not mistreat people who have contributed greatly." Yang Sen smiled and lit a cigarette.
"However, these technologies can only be partially released and can only be used for commoner purposes. At the same time, technicians must be provided by the nation, and all technical updates will be done by these people."
"This isn't a problem." Ren Baqian nodded. Even if the technology was available to him, how would he be able to find suitable technicians for it?
Such opportunities for easy money couldn't be missed, but it wouldn't be worth it if he had to invest too much energy in it.
Even though it was pretty unreasonable of him, that was the reality.
"Give me one! Isn't it normal to share cigarettes?" Ren Baqian reached his hand out toward Yang Sen, who was shrouded in smoke.
"I thought you didn't smoke?" Yang Sen was stunned for a moment before he handed a cigarette to him.
"I want to find out what it tastes like. So many people in the world smoke, and I wonder if it's truly that interesting. Otherwise, why are there so many people who are unable to kick the habit despite knowing that it's harmful?" Ren Baqian smiled. Now that he had already smoked scorpion poison, what were cigarettes compared to that? Even though these substances were harmful, they wouldn't do anything to his body.
He mimicked what others did and lit up a cigarette in his mouth, almost coughing when he inhaled the smoke into his lungs. When he was finally able to control it, the taste of tobacco spread in his mouth. At the same time, he also sensed some changes after the smoke entered his lungs.
Ren Baqian spat out after he finished the cigarette. The substances that entered his lungs, such as tar, were all expelled.
"Nothing special! It tastes bad, and it's not as good as scorpion poison."
Ren Baqian felt that smoking cigarettes was pretty boring.
The scorpion tube was more fun than this thing, even though he was truly smoking poison.
"I'm leaving! I'll get my brother, Ren Wannian, to look for you!" Ren Baqian stood up. "Bring me to pick up that girl first."
At this time, Lin Qiaole was almost like a piece of equipment that could be placed anywhere and could also be carried away.
Returning to Yang Sen's office, Lin Qiaole was sleeping there as usual. She curled up like a cat when Ren Baqian picked her up.
"Mr. Ren!" Yang Sen called out to him. "There's still something that I have to remind you about. Pay attention to your brother's girlfriend!"
Ren Baqian's eyes flashed.
"Noted! Thank you for the reminder. Are you aware of the people that she's met and the things that she's done? Send the information to me." Both of them nodded. Then, Ren Baqian left, holding Lin Qiaole by her collar.
A long time ago, he had already guessed that such a possibility existed.
After five years had pa.s.sed on Earth, there hadn't been any traces of her misconduct, so he thought that he was overthinking things. He didn't expect it to really happen.
After leaving, Ren Baqian thought for a long time before he could recall her name: Zhou Qingyun.
Unfortunately, she and Ren Wannian were already planning their marriage.
They were merely waiting for him to return before proceeding.
When Ren Baqian went back the next day, he received some things that Yang Sen had sent.
This included information about the time and location of the people she had met and also their ident.i.ties.
From data to photos, everything he needed was present.
The most important of these was a handsome man in his thirties who looked young and promising.
His ident.i.ty was that he was an intelligence officer from the USA Intelligence Service.
The information that Yang Sen sent even included the detailed time that Zhou Qingyun and that man entered and departed from the hotel.
After taking a look, it was evident to Ren Baqian that even though the state had announced the two initial cultivation manuals, it was easy for other countries to almost effortlessly obtain them. Even the techniques practiced by the military and the police could be obtained with just a little bit of effort.
The countries that had always been plotting against China had never given up.
Most of them should have been blocked by the Messier 87 department, but there would inevitably always be fish that escaped the net. The promising young man that Ren Baqian was looking at was a good example. Even though Ren Baqian already knew this man's ident.i.ty and could eliminate him at any time, Zhou Qingyun had already fallen into it.
The Messier 87 department didn't disrupt their activities and had left this task for Ren Baqian to handle. After all, Zhou Qingyun was related to Ren Wannian.
Ren Baqian called his brother on his cell phone.
"Brother, you said you needed to see me?" Two hours later, Ren Wannian took big strides into the room and sat in front of Ren Baqian.
The current Ren Wannian no longer looked young and inexperienced. After cultivating, his strength was already close to the Man Wheel level. He wasn't exactly talented, but he wasn't too bad either. It was at least sufficient for him to protect himself.
As for his figure, he wasn't as broad as Ren Baqian, he appeared just slightly stronger than an ordinary person, and he looked like a man who worked out often.
"Look at this!" Ren Baqian pushed those materials over to him.
After taking a few glances, Ren Wannian's face sank. His face was so ashen that by the time he finished looking through everything, he was at a loss for words.
When he arrived, he originally wanted to crack a joke and ask his brother about his marriage plans. His older brother had to get married first before he could.
However, after seeing all of this, he simply wanted to ask Zhou Qingyun in person what was going on.
"Brother…" Ren Wannian was at a loss.
"The scenery at the nearby Huangpu River is very vast and beautiful, yet not too cold or noisy. Do you wish to handle this on your own or do you want me to help you out?" Ren Baqian deemphasized.
"Brother…" Ren Wannian didn't know what to say.
"All of this was handed to me by the Messier 87 department. You should know what that department does. It's only because of your relations.h.i.+p that she's still around now, and they handed this matter over to us to settle," Ren Baqian explained.
Most of what he said was true, but a small part was fake.
