Chapter 764: Successor Selection
Chapter 764: Successor Selection
Meng Ke followed the reception procedures of the Flower Country and met the highest-ranking person in the afternoon.
The dignified and upright old man made Meng Ke respect him. The country of flowers could not have come this far without the wise leadership of this man at the helm.
The old man attaches great importance to people's livelihood issues such as education and medical care, and wants to establish a closer cooperative relationship with Lanyuanguo through cooperation.
Meng Ke agreed to all of them. As for the specific details of the cooperation, the various departments would directly contact each other.
At night, Meng Ke and his group were arranged to stay in a historic ancient building with an antique carved wooden door. Security depended entirely on densely packed sentries.
After Luo Tian confirmed that no one came in, he trotted to the tea room next door to feel around.
"Wife, do you think this aged bamboo will taste better?"
Meng Ke leaned in Ouyang Kong's arms.
Ouyang Kong didn't care whether his wife was a high-level psychic or not. He was afraid that she would get tired, so he rubbed Meng Ke's shoulders with moderate strength.
Meng Ke turned her head to look at Luo Tian, really afraid that he would hold the bamboo table and take a few bites.
"This bamboo has been able to withstand thousands of years of wear and tear. It must have been soaked in medicine. Don't chew it!"
"I'm not chewing! I just want to bring some back to Brother Tiger if it tastes good."
Meng Ke turned over and lay in Ouyang Kong's arms: "Do you like this hall?"
"Like it!"
Luo Tian imitated the old man in the online tea-making video and sat upright. With that atmosphere, he wanted to try making a cup of tea.
"Wife, don't you have the Ancient Blue Star tea set? Lend it to me."
Meng Ke raised her hand and placed it on the table next to her: "If you like it, it's a gift for you!"
Luo Tian trotted over: "Is this a celadon teacup? I like it! But it's you and me, what about you?"
His wife would also make a cup when she had free time. Luo Tian would never take away anyone’s favorite thing from his wife.
"I have two more sets."
When Luo Tian heard that his wife still had some, he excitedly ran back to the tea room with the tea tray.
"You can't be partial to your wife!"
A pleasant voice came from the man above my head.
Meng Ke raised her head and hugged Ouyang Kong's neck: "No partiality, everyone who sees it gets a share!"
"Other men too?"
"Of course not, only my dear husband has it."
The two of them were cuddling together, and soon, Luo Tian's exclamation was heard from the tea room.
Meng Ke's face changed and she rushed into the tea room without waiting for Ouyang Kong to react.
"what happened?"
Seeing that Luo Tian was fine, Meng Ke felt relieved.
Ouyang Kong followed closely behind, looking around vigilantly.
Luo Tian sat upright on the bamboo chair, like an obedient baby. When he saw his wife coming over, he cried and rubbed against her, asking for a hug.
"Woo woo woo! Honey! I only put a little tea in, but the lid of the teapot is rising. Look!"
Luo Tian pointed at the teapot on the bamboo table and complained.
Meng Ke looked at the teapot. Hmm! There were only tea leaves but no water. How much tea leaves was there?
Holding Tiantian with one hand and Ouyang Kong with the other, Meng Ke settled them both on bamboo chairs. She cleared the tea leaves from the pot and began to make tea for them.
"It's evening now and we're almost resting, so I'll make you two cups of flower tea."
"Okay, okay! The tea I just made is so bitter. It's nothing like the one you usually make, honey. I don't like it."
Meng Ke looked at the cup at hand. The thick soup at the bottom of the cup was simply disgusting.
"You put too much tea leaves in. Normally, if you fill a pot like this two-thirds full, you only need this much tea leaves."
Mengke scooped up half a spoonful with a teaspoon and showed it to Luo Tian.
Luo Tian exclaimed: "How can you taste the tea flavor from this little amount?"
Meng Ke was a little curious: "Didn't you say you watched the tea-making video?"
"I……"
Luo Tian felt a little guilty. It was impossible to say that he was distracted while studying.
Even when his wife made tea, he didn't pay attention to the amount of tea leaves used. He only saw the tea leaves after brewing and felt that there was a lot, so he put in that amount.
Soon, the room was filled with the fragrance of flowers. Ouyang Kong drank the floral tea and leaned back in a relaxed manner.
"What do you think of the cooperation that Flower Country discussed today?"
Meng Ke paused while drinking tea and gently placed the cup on the table.
"You know my experience. If possible, I would like to do my best to help the Flower Country."
"Well! I can help you, but it's best not to help you for free."
Seeing his wife frown, Ouyang Kong reminded her.
"Isn't there a saying in ancient learning? A little kindness, a peck of hatred. If you don't want Blue Origin Country and Flower Country to be at odds in the future, it's best to hand over all matters to the corresponding departments and discuss them openly."
Meng Ke certainly wanted to maintain long-term cooperative and friendly relations with the Flower Country. As for making the Flower Country a vassal state, she had never thought about it.
"I'll do as you say, but you have to give me the discount and the cooperation must be implemented as soon as possible."
She could see that the top leaders of the Flower-Growing Country wanted to facilitate cooperation as soon as possible.
The interstellarization process of the ancient blue planet has become unstoppable.
Instead of standing still, it is better to be one step ahead.
Seeing that the important matter was settled, Luo Tiancai said, "Wife, do we still have to have such a boring meeting tomorrow?"
Meng Ke looked at Ouyang Kong: "Is there anything else you need?"
Ouyang Kong laughed when asked: "Did you forget that I came here on vacation?"
If his wife didn't value the Flower Country, just one of the many countries on the planet, it wouldn't be worth a visit for him.
Meng Ke pinched Luo Tian's face and sent a message to Wang Ping, asking about the next arrangements.
Wang Ping quickly sent over the schedule. Meng Ke glanced at it and read it out loud, "The next few days will probably be spent sightseeing and touring famous scenic spots. There are special delicacies near the scenic spots. The ingredients provided by the Flower Country are all energetic interstellar ingredients. Do you want to go?"
"This matter can be postponed. I want to visit your hometown first. You were there last time. Is your old house still there?"
Meng Ke shook her head. "I didn't have time to look carefully last time. I only checked our area's historical sites and landforms at the hotel, and most of them are different."
"Over the past few thousand years, things have indeed changed a lot, but fortunately, the Flower Country still exists. Your return is like returning to your mother's home."
Meng Ke chuckled: "You still remember to go back to your mother's home."
"Of course! Not only do I know about going back to my parents' home, I also know about three matchmakers and six engagements, and a honeymoon."
Luo Tian immediately raised his hand: "I know about honeymoon, honey, when are we going to have our honeymoon?"
"I'll make some arrangements. Once the matter on Ancient Blue Star is settled, I'll go on a honeymoon with you guys."
"Really?"
"Ok!"
Luo Tian was so happy that he put the teacup on the table, buried his head in Meng Ke's arms, and then acted like a cat.
"Honey, can you please hurry up? I'm really looking forward to it!"
Meng Ke glanced at Ouyang Kong and promised to be the first to spend her honeymoon with him, and she would not go back on her word.
"What's going on with the alliance? Will they call us?"
She didn't want the allied forces to arrive while she was on her honeymoon with her husband.
Ouyang Kong has been keeping in touch with his eldest brother, and he knows more about the alliance than anyone else.
"They probably can't attack us, and even if they do, we're not afraid."
The Blue Origin Country has established long-term and stable cooperative relationships with several races with strong combat capabilities. Even for their own sake, they cannot let anything happen to the Blue Origin Country.
In addition, the crisis of the Mechanical Country has been resolved. If the Alliance really attacks, the Blue Origin Country can give up some interests and they will take action.
All in all, the country of Lanyuan is very safe now.
However, Ouyang Kong felt that he should still mention to his wife what his elder brother said two days ago.
"Big Brother wants to take Yangyang or Xiaoyu back and continue training them as heirs. What do you think?"
