Scientific Travel

It's already February before the New Year is even over.

New Year, new luck! Deng Yin is drawing lots.

Oops.

Looks like I'm in good luck this year, I drew a Wind Beast.

You can choose whether you want a male or a female. Deng Yin wanted a female one from the previous draw, but this one is for males.

Hopefully, by this time next year, these two Wind Beasts will have produced more Wind Beast babies than she can eat.

Dog Egg said that this thing lays piglets like pigs, producing many, and the survival rate is high.

The only downside is that these animals are very active, which makes them lean and they don't get fat like pigs.

Previously, only one Wofeng Beast lived there, so the territory was small and it didn't matter. But soon a group of Wofeng Beasts would move in, so Deng Yin simply went all out and expanded the Wofeng Beasts' territory by 20 times.

The Wofeng Beast runs very fast, averaging more than 20 kilometers a day, otherwise it is prone to depression.

The Wofeng Beast Enclosure is not circular, but rectangular; it's more like a racetrack than a circle.

The Wofeng Beast is fast, and Deng Yin is afraid that the round shape will cause it to crash into the fence while running.

.........

The New Year had just passed when Chi Lin arrived with a group of people.

Those people were all from the military camp. This time, because Chi Lin was going to send a lot of money, Mei Shengke carefully selected a group of people to prevent any mistakes.

For such an important occasion as New Year's greetings, Mei Shengke naturally brought Wei Wujiang along.

In order to build a good relationship with Deng Yin, Cui Wuji also came to pay his respects for the New Year.

These groups of people all arrived after the New Year, so naturally they all gathered together.

What Deng Yin didn't know was that, besides them, Gao Ruizhe had also come...

He just watched the crowd come and go from a distance, without getting close.

He came alone this time; Feifei was not with him.

The wind made his clothes flutter, his long hair flowed behind him, and his cane was firmly planted in the ground.

Gao Ruizhe seemed to have lost some weight, and despite having a cane, his upper body was still swaying in the wind.

For every step he took along the way, there was a hole in the ground made by his cane.

........

Deng Yin was surprised that Chi Lin could actually raise so much money in such a short time.

These are all gold coins, not silver notes. Even a money exchange wouldn't have this much cash.

Did they steal it...?

Deng Yin guessed half right, the first half.

No, it wasn't stolen. Such a large sum of money was all given to us by the old imperial advisor.

At first, he thought the money was a betrothal gift that Chi Lin had prepared for Mei Shengke, so he not only refused to introduce him to any guests, but also wouldn't let him leave the mansion.

Experience has shown that force is always the most effective weapon, no matter the circumstances.

Mei Shengke heroically rescued the commander, and after helping Chi Lin escape from the crowd, he also cleared up the misunderstanding with the old national advisor.

However, Chi Lin only said that the money was to hire a very important person to come out of retirement, and that with that person in charge, the chances of eliminating natural disasters would be greater.

It wasn't mentioned that the person was Deng Yin.

The old imperial advisor took good care of him. After learning the reason, he raised enough money for him without saying a word.

Although telling fortunes for ten people wouldn't have much of an impact on Chi Lin, if it were to shorten his lifespan, it could only be to save all living beings from suffering.

The old imperial advisor would absolutely not allow him to waste his life on other things!

The old imperial advisor was still rich; he managed to scrape together such a large sum of money in just three days.

All the cash from the three money shops in Shimu City is now with Deng Yin.

Who received the most lucky money this Chinese New Year?

That must be Deng Yin.

One for Chi Lin, one for Mei Shengke, one for Wei Wujiang, and one for Cui Wuji.

Cui Wuji didn't know that the money Chi Lin gave him was to ask Deng Yin for help; he thought it was just New Year's money.

How can this be allowed? He, as an emperor, is giving less money than a junior apprentice of the old imperial advisor.

However, this was Xiye City, which didn't have many banks or enough cash, so Cui Wuji had to use goods instead of money.

The finest jade pendant is made from rare materials, and the artisans who can carve such jade are even rarer.

It was quite valuable, and when combined with the money and items he brought, its value barely exceeded the money Chi Lin had brought.

Deng Yin didn't know anything about good or bad; she could only understand the value of silver notes and gold coins.

After Cui Wuji left, she immediately divided up the contents of the box.

That valuable jade pendant eventually ended up in Wang Xi's hands.

Wang Xi was born in the Year of the Rabbit, and coincidentally, the jade pendant had a rabbit design on it. Deng Yin thought it suited her well, so he gave the jade pendant to her.

It's the Lunar New Year, so we should give them something.

Well, the New Year is over, and Deng Yin has already given everyone lucky money.

But who would complain about having too many gifts?

Even these few people who came to pay their respects received New Year's gifts from Deng Yinchi.

Giving money is so vulgar, especially since none of these people are short of money.

Deng Yin delivered a truckload of Hami melons to the group.

For example, Cui Wuji liked to eat watermelon, so Deng Yin gave him an extra truckload of watermelons.

The remaining three people were given oranges as an extra gift.

During the Lunar New Year, if I don't want to eat oranges, what else would I like to eat?

Moreover, what Deng Yin sent was not based on what the other party wanted, but on what she had in abundance.

The newly planted oranges are almost ripe, and I haven't even eaten any of the oranges from the previous batch. Right now, the most abundant fruits in my storage space, besides cantaloupe, are oranges.

........

Regardless, since Deng Yin had promised Chi Lin, she wouldn't go back on her word.

Deng Yin is a man of his word; he keeps his word even when it comes to betting.

However, I must say this upfront:

Deng Yin: "I can go with you, but you should know that I neither know the will of Heaven nor have any halo of destiny that you can bask in."

"In other words, besides providing some daily meals and acting as a mobile warehouse, I can't do anything else."

Even so, do you still want me to go?

Chi Lin nodded and replied, "Yes."

Deng Yin may not even know what she can do.

Chi Lin can see everyone's fate, even the protagonist's.

She is from another world; her arrival here is definitely not accidental.

Or perhaps she was the one who brought about this natural disaster.

Either she is the key figure in ending this natural disaster.

Whether it's the former or the latter, Chi Lin will not let her off easily.

Deng Yin has many bizarre methods, and Chi Lin would not want to offend her unless absolutely necessary.

.........

Mei Shengke and Wei Wujiang returned after delivering the gifts. There was no one in charge in the military camp, and it was easy for something to go wrong if they stayed too long.

Before leaving, Wei Wujiang called Deng Yin away and spoke a few words to him privately.

"Feel sorry."

as well as,

"Goodbye."

Deng Yin didn't react much; he neither accepted nor refused.

This belated apology was simply because Wei Wujiang knew she was strong enough to be beyond his control.

Perhaps it was sincere, but Deng Yin didn't need it.

A belated apology sometimes has the same result as no apology at all.

All to no avail.
