I handed over to another world

Chapter 520: What a big appetite

"You will never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life?"

Father Chen waved his hand and said, "I don't have that many years to live. I'm already in my 50s. Another 20 or 30 years will be enough. This life will be over."

Chen Lin smiled as he watched his father sighing. After talking for a while, his father slowly said, "Those people who came to our house said that you had made such and such contributions to the association. Maybe there were restrictions, and you were not allowed to say a lot of things. At that time, your mother and I didn't believe it and thought they were lying to us."

"Later, these people came more frequently, bringing all kinds of things with them every time. Some of the prices seemed very expensive to me, and I began to doubt my previous judgment."

"Then I saw the existence of the Origin Star suddenly announced on TV, and then there began to be large-scale signs that elite talents from all over the country were heading there."

"The last time you went home was when your grandfather celebrated his birthday. At that time, I had already vaguely guessed that your status might be a little different... But who could have expected that the portals were opened by you?"

Father Chen smoked the rest of his cigarette in one breath, leaving only the butt, and then asked, "As the saying goes, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Since you have mastered this ability and plan to contribute it to the association, you must do your job well and don't cause trouble for the association."

"Dad, I've been working here for more than three years."

Chen Lin said to his father helplessly, "If I mess around, do you think the association will let me keep doing this?"

"Hahaha, my son is indeed a worry-free person!"

Father Chen patted Chen Lin on the shoulder with a smile, then asked, "The girl you brought back...was she chosen by yourself or was she assigned by the association?"

"Um, they all have it."

"Hmm? Why don't I understand what you mean?"

Father Chen showed a troubled look, and Chen Lin explained to him: "The association arranged for them to meet, it was a coincidence."

"So that's what the association arranged?"

"...You can also say the same."

Chen Lin simply gave up explaining further and nodded to indicate that what his father said was right.

"The girl is good, she looks like she is from the military. What's her family background? Don't let us find ourselves unworthy of her."

Father Chen asked about this again. Chen Lin was offline for several seconds before he spoke: "Their family... if you really want to talk about it, they have a very powerful background. I don't know if you know Lin Feng. He was the general manager of the outpost of the first base on the Origin Star."

"You mean, Lin Feng is this girl's father?"

"Ah."

"My good son, I never thought you could marry the general's daughter!"

Father Chen patted his son's back fiercely. Chen Lin smiled bitterly and said, "In fact, there was quite a lot of resistance at the beginning, because the meeting was not very pleasant. At that time, Professor Yu from the Hongshan Base once advised me to give up. Many people contacted me privately about this matter at that time."

"I had been planning to bring her back, but something unexpected happened at Blue Star, so things got delayed. During that time, Lin Yun and I went back to her home and met General Lin. His father was an easygoing person. He directly told me to have a good talk with his daughter, and even hoped that I would take his daughter away from the industry she was in..."

"You're not allowed to be in the army anymore?"

"No."

Chen Lin was even more helpless when he said this: "Lin Yun is studying military weapons. She joined the new weapons research and development institute after graduating from university. Her father is very worried about her mental state and personal safety. He has repeatedly proposed not to let her continue to do research in this field, but he couldn't persuade her."

Father Chen was no longer as surprised as before. After hearing the name of the New Weapons Research and Development Institute, he immediately understood everything: "I think Lin Feng did the right thing as a father."

"But it seems to me that she is still working in this field. It seems that what I said before is useless?"

"Things are different now, Dad!"

Chen Lin sighed: "We have discovered many relics of alien civilizations on our Origin Star, including some great interstellar experts. They have proposed to help the association quickly improve technology. As we develop rapidly, we also need to greatly improve our current combat capabilities, and the demand for various new weapons has been proposed."

"Lin Yun's role in the new weapons R&D institute is much more important than before. She didn't even take a break for three or four months in a row. This time she is taking a break only after finishing her work. It is impossible for her to quit."

"So that's it..."

Father Chen nodded and said to Chen Lin: "There is a saying that goes, everyone has their own aspirations, so why bother to think about it? As long as she is willing, we should not do anything to affect her."

"I didn't expect that you have such a high level of education..."

"You little brat, your father was once a serious college student, with more gold content than you bunch of young boys!"

……

When the father and son came back from outside, they saw Chen's mother chatting happily with Lin Yun.

After seeing the two people come in, Chen's mother complained about what they were doing outside. She stood up and said she was going to clean up the lunch. Lin Yun immediately said he wanted to go together.

"Oh, how can this be possible?"

"It's okay mom, just let her come with you."

Chen Lin waved his hand towards his mother, "She has never done these things before, let her try them out and learn more."

"You brat!"

Mother Chen pointed at Chen Lin but did not object. Lin Yun looked at Chen Lin with a smile and followed her mother-in-law into the kitchen.

Chen Lin and Chen's father were the only ones left in the hall again. Outside, there was a lot of noise. The relatives who had come from all around were packing up their things. Zhong Qingshu's voice was mixed in. It was obvious that the person in charge of the Xuanwu base had already thrown away his airs and mingled with everyone else.

"Zhong... Why did Director Zhong come back with you today?" "Oh, he is the boss here, and I am the boss over there at Taka's place. I am here at his place, so he must show his hospitality."

Chen Lin smiled faintly and said, "But he is also a busy man. There are tens of millions of people in Dalade. He is much busier than me. I guess he will leave after lunch. It is already the limit for him to have a meal here."

"My son has really become a high-ranking official. I am really surprised that someone like Director Zhong has such a good relationship with you."

"The Anyun base I'm in charge of is much larger than Dalad's, but the population and total area there are smaller than Dalad's. Taka Continent is not as good as here. Wild beasts are rampant there, and most of the area is primitive dense forests and undeveloped areas. We have only developed less than one thousandth of that continent..."

The father and son had a very open chat today. Chen Lin talked about the things on the Taka Continent, and Chen's father asked a lot of questions out of curiosity, until Zhong Qingshu came over with a smile.

Zhong Qingshu was actually only a few years younger than Chen's father. After he came over, he quickly established a close relationship with Chen's father. Chen Lin watched the programs on TV calmly. At this time, the variety of TV programs broadcast on the Origin Star was already very rich. Many actors were even from the Comman Empire. The Queen Irina liked to guest-star in TV dramas from time to time.

"puff……"

Chen Lin couldn't help laughing as he watched. He clearly saw the appearance of dwarves in an entertainment program, and these dwarves played the role of clowns.

Zhong Qingshu and Chen's father both looked over, and Chen Lin quickly explained with a smile: "Sorry, sorry, it's just because this show is too funny."

“I’m watching this show.”

Director Zhong took a look at what was being broadcast on TV and immediately laughed and said, "I also had a guest appearance on this show. It actually took some effort to use dwarf actors. The dwarf king didn't want to let other dwarves on the show and insisted on letting himself perform..."

Several people were silent for a few seconds after hearing this, and then Chen Lin was the first to burst out laughing. The whole group of people burst into laughter, and even the guards and assistants at the door found it difficult to hold back.

"That dwarf king is quite eager to perform."

"The relationship between the Dwarf King and us is actually very good. They originally came to this continent as refugees, so they have a very thorough understanding of the situation. After the Xuanwu base was built, they directly sent envoys to express their willingness to cooperate fully. Now these guys have moved into new houses, have no worries about food and drink, and their lives are much better than before."

Zhong Qingshu said with a smile: "These guys are quite capable. The association arranged for us to train a group of dwarves to be blue-collar technicians. Their learning speed is amazing. They can understand the operating principles of many mechanical components immediately. Now there is a group of dwarf repairmen who can repair large equipment at the Xuanwu base."

"That's not bad."

Chen Lin clapped his hands in praise. Chen's father, who was standing by, had never seen a dwarf in person. Most of the times he had seen one was on TV, so it sounded a little unbelievable to him.

"Hey, brother, when you have some free time here, you can come to the Xuanwu base to find me. Then you can go to the Dwarf Kingdom to have a look. Their little world is actually quite interesting."

"This won't be too much trouble."

"What's the trouble? It's only a few steps away. It will take less than half an hour to drive there. After passing that mountain is the Xuanwu base..."

Lunch was actually taken in the yard. There was more than one person helping in the kitchen, but with so many people it was still too much. Finally, Chen Lin signaled his assistant to find Zhong Qingshu's assistant to ask where to buy food. The two of them drove to Tianshi Town and bought four or five dishes on the spur of the moment, which finally stabilized the situation.

Chen Lin was thinking of asking the chef to come over and help, but everyone said that food tastes better when cooked by oneself, so he had no choice but to follow the crowd.

This time, Chen Lin was directly invited to sit in the middle seat. Zhong Qingshu was next to him, followed by Chen's father and mother and a group of relatives. They arranged their seats based on seniority, and he did not refuse because he knew very well that it was useless to refuse.

There was nothing much to say about lunch. The dishes were all home-cooked. The few dishes we bought were the first time many people had eaten them. They were surprised and praised the taste.

Chen Lin also had to drink a few glasses, but the only advantage was that he no longer needed to stand up and toast everyone one by one like he did before. Several cousins ​​were urged to ask him to toast, and Chen Lin smiled and drank all of them.

If he were on Earth, he would have to be more cautious about his drinking capacity.

But this is the origin star.

Chen Lin himself had learned magic, and his physical fitness had been greatly enhanced, so he was not worried about drinking at all. At worst, he could just cast a magic blessing effect on himself.

Halfway through the meal, Chen Lin specifically asked Lin Yun to stand up and meet everyone. This was considered a formal announcement to his relatives and friends that he was no longer single, which would also save him a lot of unnecessary trouble.

After Zhong Qingshu simply drank two glasses of wine, he hurriedly stood up and said he was leaving. Chen Lin did not stop him. Chen's father just said a few simple polite words and sent Zhong to the car. When he came back, he felt his steps were a lot lighter.

Although Chen Lin is now in a high position, he is his son after all.

Although Zhong Qingshu has a very good relationship with his son, he is an outsider after all, and the person in charge of the Dalard Continent, so the feeling he brings is naturally completely different.

At this time, Chen Lin was still sitting at his seat, smiling, eating and listening to everyone chatting. He had just been forced to drink five or six glasses of wine, and he could have given them up. Even his assistants came out to stop him from drinking, but Chen Lin did not ask them for help and drank it all with a smile.

Who would have thought that after drinking so much wine, Chen Lin was still not drunk at all.

There wasn't even a blush on his face, and he didn't show any talkativeness or other inappropriate behavior...

"Is Director Zhong gone?"

Chen Lin's father stood up and asked the third son who had just returned, Chen Lin's father. Seeing Chen's father nodded, he immediately smiled and said, "With Director Zhong here, it's really stressful. Although the third son's son is also a senior executive, he is still a relative, right?"

Everyone responded, and Chen Lin looked at his father with a smile. He didn't know what this middle-aged man would say, and it was more like watching a show at this moment.

"Speaking of my relatives, the third son is really impressive. I never thought he could hold such a position at such a young age. He has brought honor to our Chen family!"

A group of people nodded immediately.

The old man said to Chen Lin half jokingly and half pleadingly: "Nephew, can you at least give our Chen family some practical benefits?"

"Many people in our family followed your father and came here to lease land. The land we have bought now is limited in quantity. Our family is only allowed to use 2000 acres in total. How can this amount of land be enough for farming?"

"You talk to that person in charge, Zhong, and ask him to grant us some extra land. I think our family can grow 5000... no, acres of land!"

Chen Lin immediately laughed. His father had quite a big appetite!
