Him and their stars

The tone of this precocious genius beauty was very exaggerated, and it sounded like she was telling a joke, so Gongsun Qing also laughed dryly. She actually didn't think it was funny at all, but out of the self-cultivation of a mature adult, she felt that if she didn't laugh at this time, the scene would be really funny.

Fleur was immediately laughed at and felt a little depressed. She couldn't help but glance at Gongsun Qing and said angrily: "Sister Qing, what are you enjoying?"

"I thought of something happy." She said seriously: "I became the heroine of "The Daughter of the Sea"."

"Didn't you tell me about this last month? And you even invited me to dinner. You also said in the lobby that Miss Gongsun invited everyone for today's lunch." Fleur blinked her big purple eyes.

"I didn't say that!"

"Yes! And even if she wants to book the venue, she will also say that Miss Gongsun Qing, the best actress, will treat everyone to dinner."

"Yes, yes, even the movie queen Gongsun... told me not to make fun of me!"

However, besides jokes, Yu Lian couldn't help but think of more. He had actually heard of the Golden Gear Company that Fleur just mentioned a few times.

As we all know, this company is not actually a star company well-known to the public. In fact, it still has a certain reputation in the industry. I vaguely remember that this should be a company that produces various industrial consumables and large-scale machinery spare parts. It can be regarded as a quite capable local company in the huge alliance industrial system. Its ecological niche in the industrial chain is roughly in the middle, and it controls key products. At first glance, it looks like the type of company that can survive until the next era as long as it doesn't make any progress.

However, according to Fleur, this company is not a mid-stream local company. It is actually a comprehensive industrial company that started from orbital mining and metal smelting. Later, it was involved in energy, materials, chemical industry, industrial design and even military industry. In the era of the Kingdom of Lotak, the competitiveness of this company has always been very strong. In some of the areas in which they are best at, they can even compete with established companies in the alliance.

"Zixinhui and Golden Gear have always had a good relationship in the past. Our mobile food processing factory and orbital hydroponic farm are the main equipment we order from them. Compared with the old enterprises of Nephi, their The product is more affordable and high-quality." Fleur sighed: "It's a pity, now that the golden gear is gone, we have to spend more than 10 billion stars every year on parts replacement and maintenance!"

"And their relationship with the Alliance Central Committee is actually quite good. Right?" Yu Lianxiao asked: "It's not the so-called 'patriotic enterprise' of the Lothar people, right?"

The reason why Yu Lian asked this was that he suddenly remembered that the old Mastiff tanks he had captured in Xinyumen a few years ago had a golden gear vaguely attached to the transmission shaft on the engine. logo.

Although the Alliance no longer equips Mastiff tanks, and the youngest of these war vehicles flowing into the black market are at least more than 40 years old, this also shows that at least the Golden Gear Company is involved to a certain extent. Alliance military manufacturing.

How could a company in Lotak have such an opportunity if it had a relationship with the rulers of the alliance?

Sure enough, Fleur nodded and smiled:

"Golden Gear Company is no longer as simple as having a friendly relationship with the Nephi government, but is acting very common sense. My elders are very cautious. If we want to be a true 'patriotic enterprise', we dare not cooperate with them. . In fact, even when the Lothar rebels were at their worst, Golden Gear Company made the right choice. Not only did they take the initiative to turn over a large amount of 'management' funds to the Military Control Command every year, but they also We have imported two professional hydroponic equipment and a holiday hot spring hotel, which are exclusively responsible for serving the senior officers of the command."

At this point, the sixteen-year-old girl shrugged, showing the unique cynicism of young people, and sneered: "Brother, you know that people who know the general situation like this will generally live a very good life. "

"But aren't they gone now?"

"That's now. However, when the rebels were at their worst, this company was doing very well. And for combat needs, the Military Control Command also authorized the production of military equipment by Golden Gear Company. In this company, there are many Lothar people who have made a fortune. Haha, obviously the whole Lotak is in a period of turmoil, but ordinary Lothar people who work hard to survive are often regarded as terrorists, but the rich Lothar people But he is always a guest at Nephi's high-end shopping mall. Brother, is the world of adults always so cunning? Or is it just the world I see that is so cunning?"

"Always so cunning." Yu Lian smiled.

Gongsun Qing blinked, then quickly took out a small notebook and wrote it down.

Seeing both of them looking at her, she said naturally: "Let's continue, I just think these two sentences just now are quite suitable as movie lines."

...Well, an actor who has no desire to write scripts will definitely not be a good director. From this perspective, Miss Gongsun Qing's mental state has always been very consistent with that of an artist.

But Yu Lian stretched out his hand and tapped the other person's little head: "But this is not just a world for adults. Little Girl Movies, the so-called high-end consumer places, don't you belong to Zi Xinhui the most. You Isn’t it very cunning to pick all these things clearly?”

The purple-haired girl covered her mouth and giggled: "It seems that brother still likes to hear the straightforward truth, right? But the truth is that after law and order gradually returned to the Lotak area, the Military District Headquarters was of course abolished, and the Golden Gear The company was easily dismantled. Lord Luo Sa and others, who had made a fortune from this company, were suddenly regarded as prototypes and had to sell their real estate in exchange for credit cards. Dad took the opportunity to collect a lot more. It was a bit of a taking advantage. People are in danger, but they are happy to see the results. Haha, if I tell this truth, in the eyes of my brother, will I be a bad-hearted little devil, or a sincere little angel? "

"Perhaps both." Yu Lian said casually. As a result, Fleur's smile suddenly became sweeter, and Gongsun Qing's look at the garbage became more obvious.

Yu Lian was too lazy to pay attention to the expressions of the girls, and mused: "Indeed, the Lotake sector, where security has been restored, will be based on agriculture and tourism as its pillar industries in the future, full of the fragrance and purity of pastoral songs, no We need heavy industry, not to mention military industry.”

"Actually, it's quite a pity." The girl said: "Those Lothar rich people at the top of Golden Gear can live like an imperial noble with a lot of money just by keeping the military's order requirements, but there are still some people in the company who are very rich. Ideal. A few years ago, I heard that they even asked senior executives to go to Tiejun to observe and learn. It is said that they want to cooperate in developing a robot system of their own."

"Robot?" Yu Lian was startled.

"Or maybe it's a prosthetic factory? Mining and agriculture are very developed in the Lotak sector. However, I've only heard about this. Hahaha, anyway, some rumors are even more outrageous. What's the last dynasty of the Lothar people? The descendants were hiding in the golden gear factory twisting screws, saying they were preparing to work part-time to save funds for the restoration of the country."

"I would rather believe that he is going to learn how to build anti-matter bombs by twisting screws." Yu Lian shrugged.

"Well, this guess is a little more logical."

"However, this incident sounds like a very beautiful pig-raising and pig-killing. Is this General Gujiao's own idea, or is he just executing the will of the higher-ups in the alliance?"

Fleur blinked her eyes and showed an embarrassed look: "Oh, brother, I'm just a little cook. This kind of world affairs that makes people dizzy should actually be discussed with the princess of Rainbow Rose. .”

"I will." Yu Lian nodded, and then said: "Do you really not want me to introduce her to you?"

"Brother, you are so annoying." Fleur said angrily: "Do you still want to eat my fish balls?"

"Eat! You're here anyway."

"Uu~~~ Please don't say it so reluctantly, okay?" The purple-haired girl pouted: "Brother clearly enjoyed eating just now. Is it really that bad? Try it again, put all the maltose syrup Absorb enough, come on, open your mouth."

"Disgusting. Don't put the movie about an underage girl here and pretend you're tired of it."

"Tsk, brother is so stingy."

Gongsun Qing looked at Fulei and then at Yu Lian. This time he didn't look dirty, but he seemed to be lost in his own thoughts and a little absent-minded.

In short, as I said before, Sister Fleur's homemade dish is indeed a tough dish that is suitable for a super luxury restaurant, and it is not unpalatable purely in terms of taste, and it is acceptable for the time being.

As for the other dishes of cold dishes, although they were all made by my uncle's apprentices, they were still far above the average.

So, Yu Lian decided to focus on the food... ah no, on having lunch with the two beauties, one old and one young. At this time, except for a few extra tables near the main entrance of the kitchen, which were still empty, the various dining tables in the hall were already occupied. It was a lively scene of guests drinking and drinking. However, it can be seen that the main diners in the lobby on the first floor are still mainly college students, white-collar workers and nearby residents, with occasionally a few tables of dock workers coming from the port.

They are the kind of customers that my uncle likes most, the kind of customers who are full of fireworks.

Of course, Yu Lian also occasionally noticed that many customers who appeared to be more distinguished in terms of dress and behavior entered and exited through the rather antique staircase beside the hall. There is also an endless stream of such decent guests.

Well, there is no shortage of the kind of “high-quality” customers that investors love most, those who are tasteful, stylish and love to spend money.

This is Ronghuilou, the first earthly Chinese restaurant to open in Nephi.

The lunch soon came to an end. The little beauty said that she still had classes to attend in the afternoon. After giving a few instructions to the sous chef (uncle's student) and the real manager (a manager sent by the company) of the restaurant, Just like a cheerful little butterfly, it hummed and disappeared.

As for Gongsun Qing, he was still sitting where he was, his eyes were out of focus and he seemed to be in a daze. Yu Lian drank a whole cup of tea on the side, but couldn't stand it anymore, so he simply poked her face with his finger.

Well, it's very elastic and has plenty of collagen. I must admit that a girl in her twenties with such smooth lines of baby fat on her face is considered a gift.

Only then did Gongsun Qing's eyes regain focus, and he rolled his eyes at Yu Lian angrily.

"You have to know that if I were an enemy, I would have had twenty chances to cut off your spiritual veins and ten chances to kill you in that moment."

"The Spirit Research Association's finger amputation. I know it." Gongsun Qing said: "I feel it, but I'm just too lazy to move."

"...You're full and don't want to move?"

"It's because I don't want to move when I'm thinking about life." Gongsun Qing said seriously: "The sage taught us to plan before we move. Since I haven't achieved any results now, I really can't move."

Yu Lian suddenly became happy: "Thinking about life? You have never even given birth to a human being, what kind of life are you thinking about?"

Gongsun Qing's face turned red, but his eyes lit up, and he took out his notebook again: "This sentence is actually quite suitable as a line in a movie. I must write it down carefully."

Uh, this is a line from a movie!

She wrote down the "classic lines" one stroke at a time, put away her notebook, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Yu Lian, is it possible? Well, the real murderer, I mean the real murderer of General Gu Jiao. Fierce, are you someone related to the Golden Gear Company that Fleur just mentioned?"

Yu Lian was not surprised and said with a smile: "Go on?"

"Destroying someone's wealth is like killing one's parents. The people who hate General Gujiao the most must be the rich Lothar people who went bankrupt after the dissolution of Golden Gear Company, right? They should have the financial resources to pay for murders... and they also have connections! Well, what's your expression?"

"Don't I have an expression full of expectation and listening patiently?" Yu Lian laughed and added: "However, classmate Gongsun Qing, a group of bankrupt wealthy locals and speculators, took out the last coffin board to buy Fierce revenge, if this was written into a script, would it be able to convince the audience?"

Gongsun Qing thought seriously, and then buried his face on the table again.

"If it is really an official investigation of a supernatural case by guerrillas, can this inference be reported?" Yu Lian asked again.

"...I have never participated in the association's investigation of supernatural cases. I have said that my main task is to be a swordsmanship instructor in the training camp. I only have three days of classes a month." She muttered softly.

"Then again, is the truth of this matter really that important to you?"

She pondered for a moment, raised her head, and said in a determined tone: "The truth of the matter is actually not important to me. I was actually implicated by an innocent person."

Did you actually realize something so obvious until now?

"But it's important to resolve things."

"...In other words, it is important that the truth is not there?"

Gongsun Qing was startled for a moment, then showed a look of awe: "Yu Lian, you still understand me! As long as the matter is solved, of course, the truth will be understood, which means there is no truth. To the stability of my mind And purely speaking, this is really the most important, most important thing.”

"..."

"Even the weird numbers and picture clues are gone. If I don't push it back, I always feel unwilling. My uncle said that only when the mind is stable can it be pure. Only when people are pure can the sword be pure!"

"...Then you want to be an actor for this pure reason?"

"Being an actor is a hobby and a dream. However, the sword is the responsibility of the family inheritance, and of course it cannot be given up. I still want both sides." Gongsun Qing acted like a grown-up girl: "Besides, Yu Lian , you are right, they are also aiming at you. As your charge captain, I think I should take action! "

"What a reliable and good crew member! Captain Gongsun!" Yu Lian couldn't help but smile. Having said that, it would be impossible for him not to be touched.

"I said, I'm very busy. It's not that I'm not interested in this matter, but with my current position and identity, I can't get involved in this matter. If I was really free, I would probably find a few people first. Talk to a trusted local snake, or go straight to the most powerful intelligence dealer to inquire about the origin of this pattern. Of course, the Guerrilla Association is the expert in this field, but in essence, it is the same as the Coast Guard. They are the court eagle dogs of the alliance. Therefore, it is best to find help from some grassroots guerrillas who also do not follow the rules."

Miss Gongsun Qing did not speak, but her eyes naturally began to light up.

"Does anyone recommend it?"

Yu Lian almost lost his temper because of the other party's taking it for granted: "You are the real guerrilla, okay?"

Gongsun Qing chuckled sheepishly, but continued to stare at Yu Lian with great anticipation.

Yu Lian pondered for a moment, pressed his temples, thought for a while, and then dialed a phone number: "Hey! Brother Yaxiu, it's my brother, I...fuck, you kid actually dare to press my phone?"
