Soul of the rich

After resting all night, Qi Jingshen went back to Star S the next day.

Wen Zhiyuan's daily life remained the same, but Mohai Academy of Sciences sent two professional bodyguards to escort him in and out every day, and at the same time there were people from the Qi family's guards living upstairs, downstairs, left and right in the living room.

It may be that he experienced a life and death, and his mood changed a little. In a short period of time, his mental power control improved again.

A week later, Bai Si returned from the outside with the team, and she received the briefing as soon as the electromagnetic silence was canceled in space.

In order to prevent her from being anxious, the first line of the briefing stated that Wen Zhiyuan was all well except for skin injuries, and then described the entire kidnapping process.

After Bai Si read the whole content, he regretted going back to work for a while.

She originally thought that she should spend more time with her son, but Wen Zhiyuan persuaded her that she is only in her 40s now, and her days are still long, so she can't just become a housewife from now on, and do something she likes, as long as Just get it under control.

Wen Zhiyuan felt that he also had various jobs, so he couldn't always be with his mother. A family with a daughter-in-law was fine, and the family would still be popular if they had children.

He and Qi Jingyan are destined to be busy in the future, and it would be very boring for mother to spend time with him, so it is best to find something you like to do.

As a result, Bai Si went to the silent navy to abuse the recruits.She liked the environment and atmosphere of the army, but she promised Wen Zhiyuan not to take risks, so she did not participate in any combat missions.

The moment after reading the content of the briefing, Bai Si's eyebrows were tightened, and her beautiful side face looked much stiffer. The tree wanted to be quiet but the wind kept blowing, it was too early to feel relieved.

As soon as Tian Wen Zhiyuan entered the door, he could smell the aroma of food. He turned around and saw his mother wearing an apron, and happily rushed over to give her a gentle hug.

Bai Si dragged him around several times, squeezed his arms and legs, and after confirming that he was fine, the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, "I won't leave your side from now on, Qi Jingyan is too useless."

"Mom, are you underestimating your son? I'm not three years old, so I don't need my mother to follow me. This time I'm on guard, and nothing will happen in the future," Wen Zhiyuan smiled, washed his hands and went to the dinner table , "Let me see what delicious food I made?"

"It's all what you like." Bai Si smiled helplessly, and took advantage of the opportunity to sit down and prepare to eat, without trying to expose him to deliberately change the subject.In the past, her cooking skills were basically zero, and she would use microwave equipment to heat boxed meals. Now, the few dishes she can cook are newly learned in the past six months, and she somewhat has the mentality of compensating her son. Unfortunately, her talent is not very good, and she is quite satisfactory. That's all.

Wen Zhiyuan was very supportive, but if Bai Si cooks in person, he will definitely eat an extra bowl of rice.After eating, he rubbed his belly and sat down comfortably, and told Bai Si the details of the whole matter again. Bai Si couldn't see the briefing Qi Jingyan received, and he only completed the information after listening to his explanation. .

It's just a little strange, "Wendingchuan and the others occupy some barren planets with harsh climates, and the vast universe outside the empire's territory. There should be other supply channels for energy stones. Although they like to smuggle high-quality energy stones from the empire, But when there is a shortage, he can get it under his hands, and there is no need to swagger like a few ships of energy stones to collide with a planet's guard army."

After hearing Bai Si's explanation, Wen Zhiyuan felt uneasy, looked at the time, it was already after dinner, and quickly called Qi Jingyan.

The communication was quickly connected, Qi Jingyan glanced at the screen, and sat upright facing the screen, "Mom is back, have you worked hard?"

"I'm used to it, the work is quite interesting, and I'm fine." Bai Si finished speaking succinctly, and told Qi Jingyan the information he knew about the source of energy stones in Wending River, "Those abandoned planets with energy stones are mostly because of The ore purity is too low to be abandoned by the empire, but it is enough to support a small-scale fleet like the Pirate Legion."

Qi Jingyan nodded, "We also have guesses about this. After interrogating those captives in the past few days, we found that the forces behind the interstellar pirates have grown astonishingly."

Hundreds of prisoners were captured in a small-scale encounter, not to mention the rest of the fleet criss-crossing the universe, and the planetary laboratory that Bai Si had submitted a report on. How many.

With such a scale, there are still interstellar pirates who rely on a few ships to make a living in the universe. There are planets, mercenaries, fleets, and scientific research laboratories... It is clear that they can stand on their own as kings and become a country within a country.

They haven't raised the banner yet, either because they are suppressed by a powerful boss, or they simply feel that they are in a good state of living by relying on the economic and political system of the empire to catch fish that slip through the net.

The fact that it was taken out of the mouths of these prisoners has greatly shocked the old stubborn people in various departments and military departments of the empire. If it goes well, the losses in previous encounters may not be held accountable, and the imperial military department, which has shrunk for many years, may have to expand.

After all, the territory of the empire has been expanding over the years. Human beings are not the only intelligent creatures in the universe. Sooner or later, they will encounter each other because of resources. Therefore, internal fighting must not be split. The military department and the management committee will try their best to kill all crises in the cradle , This large-scale illegal armed force is absolutely not allowed to exist!

Wen Zhiyuan quietly listened to his mother and Qi Jingyan discussing the situation of the empire back and forth for a while, guessed the intentions of the interstellar pirates, and raised his hand weakly, "Is there something abnormal about the energy stone they took away?"

"It has already been tested, and the energy stone on the ship that was snatched back is of ordinary civilian grade, without any abnormalities. The channel comes from a mine surnamed Fu on Star S." Qi Jingyan cleared his throat, explained while thinking, and felt in his heart It seems to have overlooked something.

"I remember that Caesar mentioned in the report that the killed and disabled spaceships are all obsolete models, and they seem to be specially reserved for death after they are broken. They are discarded sons." Wen Zhiyuan said slowly, "So, will it be Do you think this energy stone was left on purpose? Has the Wen family’s mine been shipped recently? Why did you give him mine No. 37 as a betrothal gift?”

Wen Song used to hold Bai Si's asset share and made a lot of money, but now Wen Zhiyuan took it away as a dowry, and the new mine is still in the stage of consolidation. At this moment, the shipment volume should be reduced, and at the same time, he is trying to contact new customers.

At least in the past few months, before the new mine found a regular distributor, Wen Zhiyuan's performance this year was not very good in the eyes of the mining bosses of Star S.

However, he was one of the so-called patriarchs of aristocratic families who had the cheek to make a statement early in the morning, but actually murdered them.

Wen Zhiyuan vaguely remembered that in that draft, the reason why the Wen family apologized was that the interstellar pirates also used the space port of the Wen family, and they were brought in by a navigator with a pass.Therefore, Wen Song vowed to strictly investigate why the port pass for his own use was used by interstellar pirates.At that time, other families said that it was the insiders who guarded themselves and stole the energy stones to trade with the interstellar pirates.The Wen family did not say that there was someone supplying them internally.

According to Wen’s recent shipments, Wen Song would definitely not be able to go to this press conference to embarrass himself. At that time, the reporters on the spot almost poked the microphone in their faces, and the sharp-tongued reports afterwards were not just a joke.As a family that considers itself to be an old-fashioned family, they will try their best not to appear in such news.

Wenjia port only needs to explain that it is occupied. After all, my own serious customers can’t supply the goods, so how can there be energy stones to smuggle? !So why did he follow?

Bai Si also thought of these things at once, "If only the port is really used, Wen Song's personality will definitely not go."

Qi Jingyan quickly pulled out the monitoring report. In fact, Wen Song's movements had been watched all the time. He hadn't been found to have any contact with the outside world. Everyone ignored the mine for a while.

"The energy stone of No. 37 mine contains special impurities. If it is extracted first and then fused in an appropriate proportion, it will increase the energy output." Qi Jingyan quickly turned to the reported information, "The Wen family is currently claiming to be doing infrastructure construction there. , The machines on the mine site are running day and night, and the ground has been chipped..." He paused, "Part of the mine is open-pit, and it can be sorted in the factory just by peeling it off."

So Wen Song did participate, maybe the power stones taken away by the blindfold this time were mainly provided by him.The other families are just helping to cover up and confuse the public!

Bai Si raised his jaw, "I wanted to leave him alone, but it looks like I have to go to Star S to stay for a while."

"Mom, you said no more..." Wen Zhiyuan held Bai Si's hand, and his words were interrupted.

Bai Si smiled, "Let Jing Yan do all the going out, and I will definitely not participate in it, but I am more suitable than Jing Yan to block them face to face every day, go to various families to participate in some activities and go shopping."

Qi Jingyan is married now, so he can't go on a "blind date" in different families like before.

Wen Zhiyuan also thought of this matter, "Can't we send people to sneak in?"

"This is more difficult. These families of Star S are actually loose on the outside and tight on the inside. If it is not for the servants who have passed the examination, it is not easy for the guests with the invitation to get in," Qi Jingyan explained, and now in front of Wen Zhiyuan Thinking of going on blind dates before, she was a little embarrassed, "The Wen family also has the most advanced peripheral defense system on the market. It is more convenient for someone to bring a stranger in with a legitimate name than to sneak in."

Understood, Wen Zhiyuan thought for a while, "I'll go back with my mother. Let's just say that I went to Capital Star to accompany my mother for treatment in the past few months. When I feel better, I will pick me up. We will stay at my grandfather's house.",
