Chapter 159 Taking Command
"Mmm, soft, sweet, and fragrant, the texture is three times better than before..."
After giving a brief evaluation, Qiu Hougong reached out and pulled Xue Wu into his arms, asking with a smile, "Let your husband guess, this rice was cultivated in the region under your jurisdiction, right?"
"My husband is right..."
Xue Wu rubbed against Qiu Hougong, then rose slightly and said to him, "This batch of original rice plants was discovered by an old farmer with the strength of the Spirit Realm three months ago, and he is currently cultivating them with all his might."
"Okay, this is a big deal..."
Upon hearing Xue Wu's words, Qiu Hou Gong, who already had an idea in mind, immediately became serious. "Wife, you'll have to work harder in the coming days."
"Yes, honey, don't worry, I know what to do."
Xue Wu nodded seriously, and Gu Yuena, sitting next to Qiu Hougong, also spoke up: "Husband, now that the number of living beings on the Luo Cang Continent is about to reach its peak, shouldn't we proceed with the next step of our plan?"
"It's almost done..."
Thinking of the transmigrator detected by the system earlier, Qiu Hougong nodded to Gu Yuena, then shared his thoughts and the specific information about the Storm Continent that he had obtained from the system with the women.
"Grandpa, why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut..."
After learning about the objective, Qiu Linghuo, who was sitting to Xiao Wu's right, raised her fair little hand and said, "This time, let me lead the team by myself. Grandpa and Grandma can stay at home and oversee things."
"You silly girl, have you forgotten what your grandfather said before?"
Gently tapping her daughter's head, Qiu Mengwu, dressed in a white dress, admonished, "Our expedition is not simply about military conquest, but about uniting all races that can be united, so that the world can achieve harmony and true peace. A vast and complex territory like Storm Continent, with its numerous and diverse races, how long would it take you to conquer it all by yourself? Don't you want to... go back to your grandfather?"
"Yes, Mom. Of course I want to..."
Hearing Qiu Mengwu's admonition, Qiu Linghuo, realizing her mistake, quickly admitted it, saying, "I just didn't want everyone to work so hard, Mom, please don't be angry."
"You child..."
Qiu Mengwu reached out and poked Qiu Linghuo's smooth forehead again.
At this moment, Qiu Hougong's voice came from the main seat, "Alright, Mengwu, Huo'er meant well. Just say a few words and that's enough."
"Dad, please stop spoiling this girl..."
Qiu Mengwu looked at Qiu Hougong and said, "This child has done this more than once or twice without thinking things through. If you continue to spoil him like this, it will cause trouble in the future."
"Yes, Dad knows that spoiling someone is definitely not good, but..."
Qiu Hougong smiled and gave Qiu Mengwu a few suggestions on how to guide the child's thinking. Then he said to the women, "Regarding the selection of the people for this expedition, I have decided that Lingyan will be the commander. As for who the general is, that is up to you, Lingyan."
"Ah? I understand, Grandpa..."
Upon hearing Qiu Hougong's words, Hu Liena's granddaughter, Qiu Mengmei's daughter Qiu Lingyan, was overjoyed. She then stood up and said, "Sister Lingyue, Sister Lingxin, Sister Lingying, let's go together."
"Okay, Lingyan."
Bibi Dong's granddaughter, Qiu Lingyue, spoke with a smile, and Qiu Lingxin, sitting on the other two sides, and Qiu Lingying, Lingyuan's granddaughter, also nodded in agreement.
