Interstellar Number One Farmer: I Only Want To Farm!-Chapter 72 - 27: Command

"Moved for nothing, I knew you wanted free labor from me. Peel it yourself, you rascal." Xiao Wanzi really took herself as a mother, her sarcastic tone exactly the same.

...

After exams, the students were on holiday. The school gave them a week to prepare; later they would embark on a twenty-day practical patrol mission.

Wu Qingqing excitedly went to find someone to move the simulation pod, and her three roommates said they would go along, just to have a stroll. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

The four who hadn’t been out of the school gates in ages found everything new and exciting, opting first to go to the park to watch others play with exoskeleton machinery.

Exoskeleton machinery is like a scaled-down version of a Mecha, easier to operate, and when not equipped with weapons, it’s not much different from an old man at the park waving around a sword.

It can fight in relatively narrow streets without easily destroying buildings, so it’s also a standard combat instrument for the army.

Due to its non-destructive nature, exoskeleton machinery wasn’t restricted for sale, and once launched, it became a craze among teenagers. Over a decade has passed, and today’s young people can perform all sorts of stunts with it.

There happened to be more than a dozen youths practicing in the park, doing all kinds of difficult maneuvers.

Su Xiaocai and the three others applauded enthusiastically, making the group of teenagers blush with embarrassment.

After watching the performance, they went for snacks and bought clothes.

Then, still reluctant to end the day, they slowly went to watch workers move the simulation pod, riding along with the transport vehicle back to school.

Just as the simulation pod was being moved through the school gates, they ran into Liu Xun, Pan Mingjie, and Hu Ping.

They immediately recognized the valuable simulation pod on the hovering trailer. "Isn’t the Mecha Department going out? Why are you moving a simulation pod in?"

Although Hu Ping’s family had mines, his family had never thought of buying two simulation pods for him to keep in the dormitory, so he was super curious about what fun Wu Qingqing was up to.

"You don’t get it, don’t block the way. We need to hurry back to test the game." Wu Qingqing unceremoniously swatted his hand away.

"What game? I want to play too." Hu Ping, with his thick skin and more familiarity with Wu Qingqing, directly ignored her rejection and stubbornly insisted on knowing.

"How about I lend you the Xue Family’s newly released combat robot to play with and you let me try your game?"

Wu Qingqing finally understood how Su Xiaocai felt about her back then.

Looked at him like an idiot.

The Xue Family’s combat robot was like a giant toy, cumbersome and hard to use, punching it felt unsatisfying.

As for the Su-brand combat robot, Wu Qingqing still couldn’t savagely beat it.

Whenever you wanted to beat it, it would hit you with cold, logical language, "You have passed the primary stage, would you like to enter the intermediate stage."

Chilling to the core, instantly sobering the mind.

Wu Qingqing, having seen the world, wasn’t interested in such a toy.

"Don’t like it? Liu Xun and Xiao Ming like it very much." Hu Ping turned to get agreement from his two roommates.

As a result, Liu Xun shyly went to find Xing Miao, while Pan Mingjie circled around the simulation pod, full of envy.

Hu Ping raised a mischievous eyebrow, kidding, "If you don’t include me, I’ll immediately go find Uncle Wu and say you played and abandoned me."

"Why don’t you say I kicked you to the curb?" Wu Qingqing rolled her eyes.

"That’s not impossible," Hu Ping said righteously. "I’m just a big man having a non-existent romance, it’s no big deal."

Ultimately, Wu Qingqing, under Hu Ping’s shameless bombardment, turned to ask Su Xiaocai for her opinion.

Su Xiaocai smiled generously, "Just as well, I need people to test the game. If he’s free, let them play. When the holidays are over, I’ll launch it on the market. If Senior Brother Hu sees market potential, perhaps he could consider investing."

"You made this game? Ah, my reputation! Had I known, I wouldn’t have stuck to this tomboy; junior sister, why didn’t you say, I’d rather be kicked by you."

Wu Qingqing kicked him, "Why don’t you just drop dead."

Hu Ping slyly dodged, rubbing his chin, surprised that there was talent for making games at the Agricultural Research Institute; coincidentally, his family was indeed interested in investing in that industry, "If I like it after playing, investing won’t be an issue."

Su Xiaocai: "Do you have a simulation pod in your dorm?"

Hu Ping replied without thinking, "Ji Heng has one."

"Oh, that’s not possible. I’m allergic to the Xue surname." Su Xiaocai turned to leave.

Heh heh, fellow kindred spirit, Hu Ping liked Su Xiaocai’s straightforwardness.

But speaking objectively, Ji Heng really wasn’t bad, quite the gentleman, true to his word, with great grades and an exceptional talent for Mecha piloting.

The only flaw was his fiancée.

To balance friendships, "I’ll have a pod sent in later." Hu Ping threw a flirty look at Su Xiaocai, then said to Wu Qingqing, "I’m counting on you guys, little junior sister. If we get assigned to the same team for this training, I’ll definitely look after you."
