Sumu wood in the quadrangle welcomes spring
Chapter 413: Money is the key, what dignity is the key
"Brother Su, long time no see."
Hu Bayi smiled a little shyly.
He is a steel warrior who has been tempered by the flames of war. Not long ago, he was a company commander leading troops to the front line of the battlefield.
Only in front of Su Mu would he show this kind of brotherly attitude.
In Wang Kaixuan's impression, Commander Hu is always the one who stands up and takes responsibility in times of crisis.
He had never seen Commander Hu in this hesitant and excited state since the incidents between the two families.
"Yes, I heard about your story. You didn't bring shame to the children in our compound."
Sumu is the leader of this generation of children from the compound.
Even Li Yuanchao was willing to admit defeat, let alone Hu Bayi's situation.
He was deeply touched to be recognized as a child of the compound.
Moreover, Hu Bayi's recognition of Su Mu is not just as simple as recognizing him as the leader of this generation of young people in the compound.
The experience in the hinterland of Kunlun Mountains allowed Hu Bayi to witness Su Mu's extraordinary abilities.
He yearned for it, worshipped it and admired it.
Before he knew it, Hu Bayi had already become Su Mu's little fanboy.
The group and their luggage were transported to the Beijing Railway Station by three military medium-sized trucks.
As overseas Chinese in the United States, Su Mu, and Professor Chen, they all had soft sleeper tickets.
They don't have to take care of the luggage.
Relevant personnel will deliver the luggage to the train luggage car and will put it away when it arrives at the destination.
After all, this time the Xinjiang scientific expedition team was funded by explorers from the United States and was carrying out a national scientific expedition mission.
There are cars to pick you up and drop you off wherever you go, and the standards are very high.
"Su, hello, Brother Su."
There was a little girl in the team, and her eyes made contact with Su Mu several times along the way.
Shy and excited, she finally mustered up the courage to step forward and say hello to Sumu before boarding the train.
"Oh, it's you."
Su Mu searched his memory and immediately remembered who the girl in front of him was.
"You, you really remember me."
Ye Shuxin almost blurted out the word "lecher".
Thinking of the embarrassment and shame of that brief contact, Ye Shuxin's cheeks turned even redder.
The girl in front of me is a graduate student majoring in archaeology at Yan University.
This was my first time participating in an outdoor scientific expedition, as I was recommended by Yan University. When I introduced myself, I said that I did this because I was interested in archaeology and Jingjue culture, and also to earn credits.
Professor Chen introduced it to Su Mu.
Ye Shuxin has just been admitted to graduate school, where he will be studying under his colleague and good friend Professor Sun Bowu.
Professor Sun was ordered to lead a team to the Northeast.
A Liao tomb was uncovered there due to the earthquake, which requires rescue research and excavation.
Ye Shuxin was unable to go with the group due to schoolwork, but this time there was a scientific expedition mission to the ancient city of Jingjue. Professor Sun took time out of his busy schedule to write a letter and asked his old friend for help.
Professor Chen accepted Ye Shuxin.
Ye Shuxin didn't expect that she would meet the benefactor who saved her from falling into the water here.
Of course, when she was rescuing herself, she also used her hands and fingers to touch her man in the water while swimming.
It's a rare opportunity.
Since he is so handsome, I have decided that I must settle this account and repay him for saving my life. If he doesn't repay me with my body, I will never forgive him.
Well~It’s because Su Mu is so handsome.
If it was... that guy Wang Pangzi...
Just, just, I will wait until I can work like a slave in the next life and then repay him.
If she couldn't be a cow or a horse in the next life, but could still be a human, Ye Shuxin felt that she would continue to look for a handsome man like Su Mu to pledge herself to.
"Xiao Ye, there is an empty seat in the soft sleeper compartment. You are the only girl in the team, why don't you follow me to the front compartment?"
"May I?"
Ye Shuxin's eyes sparkled with joy, and she said in great joy and surprise, "Thank you, Brother Su."
I can handle it even if you call me uncle.
When Shirley Yang, who was not far away, called out "Big Brother", she subconsciously rolled her eyes.
What do you mean she is the only girl in the team...
Am I not a woman?
What a look!
Even if women have no connection with each other, they will subconsciously compare themselves to each other the moment they meet.
Compare looks, compare ages, compare heights, compare weights, compare whether you can see your toes when you lower your head, compare whether you can hold a cup of tea without spilling it when you stick your butt out...
The reason why Shirley Yang rolled her eyes was because she and classmate Ye were evenly matched.
Su Mu invited Ye Shuxin, but ignored her, which aroused Shirley Yang's desire to win.
A girl who grows up in a beautiful country, even with the instruction of her grandfather Partridge Whistle, will still be infected with the self-righteous freedom and unrestrainedness of a democratic country.
To put it simply, it means dare to love and hate.
Professor Chen was old, so Shirley Yang gave her lower bunk to him.
Sumu also slept on the lower bunk.
Shirley Yang stared at Su Mu, waiting for him to politely give her the lower bunk seat...
As a result, Su Mu took off his shoes, lay down, and closed his eyes to rest.
Shirley Yang's nostrils flared with anger and she almost got internal injuries.
Although the man looks a little handsome, he is not a gentleman at all.
But she didn't expect that Su Mu didn't consider her as an overseas Chinese at all.
Just an ordinary beautiful woman.
There's no rush to get close now. Once we get into the desert, there will be plenty of opportunities to take advantage of her... ahem, save her from danger.
At that time, whether to carry, hug, or even kiss, it was all up to you.
Ye Shuxin climbed onto Su Mu by stepping on the lower bunk.
The feet wrapped in light-colored floral socks were quite beautiful, and Su Mu couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Shirley Yang couldn't help but snort again, sitting on the edge of the lower bunk opposite and taking off her shoes.
Su Mu looked carefully and did not hide his preference for jade feet at all.
No wonder Shirley Yang had a competitive spirit. Whether in color or shape, although Su Mu had not touched her, it seemed that she was definitely on par with Ye Shuxin.
They can be called a pair of delicate and beautiful feet.
"Shirley, let's discuss our next itinerary..."
Professor Chen's inexplicable words broke the strange atmosphere in the soft car.
Professor Chen has been immersed in Jingjue culture for most of his life, and it can be said that he has dedicated almost his entire life to Jingjue.
Moreover, he was the one who knew about the problem of the Zakramah clan who was cursed by the ghost cave.
In order to help his old friend fulfill his last wish and for the sake of his old friend's bloodline inheritance, Professor Chen has devoted himself to this scientific expedition team since his application was approved.
Her level of professionalism is so high that even Shirley Yang would feel ashamed of herself.
After a while, Shirley Yang and Professor Chen began to communicate and negotiate seriously.
"That notebook was carried by my father. The last time we found the source of the signal was somewhere in Kunlun Mountain..."
"Notes are very important to us. It seems that we need to go to Kunlun Mountain before going to the desert."
"Uncle Chen, if we want to change the itinerary, will the higher-ups agree?"
The importance of Kunlun Mountain to flower growers is no less than that of Laojun Mountain.
With a sponsor from a beautiful country, we just left Beijing and had to change our itinerary before we even got off the train. We were heading to Kunlun Mountain...
It would be strange to say that it is not difficult.
But Shirley Yang was worrying too much.
Professor Chen has spent his entire life studying Jingjue culture and has become obsessed with it to the point where it is beyond normal comprehension.
What's more, Shirley Yang is the granddaughter of an old friend. He not only has to do his best to be a good host, but also will take care of her and give her help as much as possible.
"Don't worry, leave it to me. I'll have someone consult with the higher-ups at the next stop."
At the next stop, someone will call their superior for instructions, and at the next stop or two, they will call again to ask for approval.
Communication is very cumbersome nowadays, and this is already the most efficient way of communication.
Su Mu turned around and faced inward with his back to them.
He seems to be sleeping, but his mind is as clear as a mirror.
Since Su Mu is accompanying us on this trip and our team leader Hu Bayi is here, the request to go to Kunlun Mountains will definitely be approved.
And there won't be any twists and turns or hesitations.
as predicted.
Professor Chen received a reply at the second stop.
It was only a few hours.
Professor Chen had not planned to go down and make a phone call for consultation, but instead the results were notified in advance to the next stop of the train. As soon as the train arrived at the station, a messenger came up to find Professor Chen and his group.
"Great, Uncle Chen. Since the higher-ups have given us permission, let's change our route and go to Kunlun Mountain to look for my father's notes first."
"Okay, okay. Let's call Team Leader Hu over to discuss the revised plan."
"Okay, I'll call you."
Shirley Yang glanced at Su Mu's back, then stood up and left the box.
After a while, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan walked in behind Shirley Yang.
"Brother Su, he's asleep."
Wang Kaixuan greeted with a giggle.
Su Mu sat up and made room for them.
He sat cross-legged at the head of the bed, resting his right arm on the table, pointing at his cheek, and watching the show.
Looking up slightly, Ye Shuxin on the opposite side also leaned out her head, as if actively participating in the discussion. In fact, Su Mu noticed from the corner of his eye that as long as he didn't look at her, Ye Shuxin would always secretly stare at him.
A pair of...how to say it?
It feels a bit like being a nymphomaniac.
Professor Chen explained the topic of the discussion.
As expected, Hu Bayi's face changed and he refused without hesitation.
"The climate in the hinterland of Kunlun Mountain is changeable and the terrain is complex. Accidents can happen if you are not careful. Our team is not a professional engineering unit, so it is very dangerous to go there."
Professor Chen looked embarrassed and looked at Shirley Yang.
"Kunlun Mountain has what we need. To be honest, my father has organized an international expedition team before. The notebook he carried with him contained records about the ancient country of Jingjue. That notebook is crucial to our trip to Jingjue this time, but the signal that my father's team disappeared at the end was in Kunlun Mountain..."
Hu Bayi had a kind of compassionate spirit, and after hearing Shirley Yang's description, he fell silent.
He still looked troubled.
To be honest, if it wasn't necessary, he really didn't want to take the risk of going to Kunlun Mountains again.
Especially since the comrades around him were replaced by a group of untrained literati, scholars and... women.
Even though the people around me were comrades-in-arms, many of them also sacrificed their lives.
Thinking of this, Hu Bayi suddenly remembered the only time he did not sacrifice himself.
But after that, Su Mu himself was injured and was in a coma for a long time...
Hu Bayi turned his head and looked at Su Mu, who was clearly there to watch the show.
"Brother Su, what do you think?"
It doesn't matter what Su Mu thinks.
Wang Kaixuan seemed to have found an opportunity and suddenly interrupted and said:
"We agreed to go to the desert, how can we change the schedule just like that? No, this is definitely not possible, unless, unless... add more money, add... 2... 3! Only yuan is enough."
"If you don't agree, get off at the next stop. We must go to Kunlun Mountain. Without the notebook, I have no hope of going to the desert."
There is little hope, so I don't want to waste money.
Fatty Wang looked embarrassed.
The feeling of trying to steal a chicken but ending up losing the rice is overwhelming.
Su Mu subconsciously curled the corners of his mouth and almost laughed out loud.
"Old Hu, Old Hu, please say something."
If I get off at the next stop, not to mention the extra money, the originally agreed upon 20,000 US dollars will also be gone.
The meat was about to slip away from his mouth, and Wang Kaixuan was so anxious that he almost got angry.
At the critical moment, he could only pin his hopes on Hu Bayi.
"Brother Su, what do you think?"
Hu Bayi asked Su Mu seriously.
"I?"
"Yes, after all, that's where you were seriously injured and unconscious for more than three years... They don't know the danger, but you always know it."
"Hmm~"
Everyone looked at Su Mu.
The onlookers were being stared at by everyone and were suddenly immersed in it. Su Mu was still a little uncomfortable with it.
"I'll sit cross-legged and watch."
Su Mu joked, "We are just employees. This guy pays the money and this guy is the leader. We can either withdraw or follow them in whatever way they want."
"Besides, they are just notifying you, not really discussing with you. Just bear with it because they are giving you face. If something goes wrong there, if one person dies, all of you will die. It doesn't make any difference."
Hu Bayi tried hard to digest Su Mu's bold remarks, and glanced quickly at Professor Chen and Shirley Yang across from him with a hint of embarrassment.
After all, Brother Su spoke too bluntly, and there was no respect for the two of them in his words, and there was even contempt and a hint of sarcasm.
That's really bold.
As expected, you are Brother Su.
Live transparently and not against your heart at all.
"Okay, Ms. Yang, Professor Chen, I understand about the change of schedule."
There is no need to continue the topic here.
"Captain Hu, you haven't expressed your opinion yet. Do you want to change your route with us to Kunlun Mountain, or get off at the next stop and return to Beijing?"
Shirley Yang didn't understand what he meant and asked.
She is a girl who grew up in the United States and doesn't understand the local customs and practices there.
When Hu Bayi said this, it actually meant that he had built a step to walk down.
Being asked so bluntly by Shirley Yang, the embarrassment accidentally rose to a higher level.
"It's about making money. It's based on my skills. It's not shameful."
Su Mu said slowly.
"Ms. Yang, since we have accepted this job, we will continue to follow up. After all, as Brother Su said, we can't go against money."
Hu Bayi has changed.
The attitude has changed, the tone has changed.
After saying that, he opened the carriage door and walked out with Wang Kaixuan.
"Mr. Su, is Kunlun Mountain really dangerous?"
"It's OK. If you're lucky, you can survive."
"What if I'm unlucky?"
Su Mu looked at Shirley Yang playfully, then raised his arm and waved towards the door.
When Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan left, the carriage door was not closed.
Hu Bayi was relatively polite, but the last one to walk was Wang Kaixuan.
He was criticized by Shirley Yang and was very angry, so how could he consider closing the store?
So Su Mu waved towards the wide open sliding door.
As Su Mu waved his arm, the sliding door slammed shut.
Shirley Yang's eyes flashed with horror.
She looked at the sliding door, then at Su Mu who was lying down again, and slowly uttered four words: "Flower planting skills."
Professor Chen was shocked.
"Mr. Su, just now Leader Xiao Hu said that you were seriously injured in Kunlun Mountain and were in a coma for three years. Can you tell us about this?"
