Chapter 200 Wei Ranran
Ahead lies the entrance gate of the Dongchuan Military Region.
Chen Gequn took the lead, showing his retired officer's certificate to the military region guards for construction.
A short while later, Chen Gequn waved to his family and walked into the military region together.
Chen Gequn led his family to the military merit exchange office in the military region.
Upon entering the lobby, Chen Gequn led Chen Lie to the window office.
"Hello, we're here to exchange our military merits."
As he spoke, Chen Gequn handed a stack of documents to the office staff at the window.
After receiving the document, the office staff carefully reviewed it.
"Chen Gequn, is that right?"
"Yes!"
"You earned a first-class merit in the year 7352 of the Galactic Calendar. Are you sure you want to use your military merit?"
"Yes!"
The office worker handed a document through the window and said, "Take this document and go to the next hall to select resources for exchange."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
Chen Gequn, carrying the materials, led Chen Lie to the next hall.
The adjacent hall was a place specifically for selecting resources. There was a huge screen displaying introductions to various resources. Chen Gequn handed the materials list to the staff at the resource selection area, and then went there with Chen Lie.
"Son, there are over a hundred kinds of precious medicinal herbs and martial arts treasures listed here. Your father's military merits can be used to select one of them. We're not in a hurry, so take your time to choose," Chen Gequn said to Chen Lie.
Chen Lie grunted in agreement and then stepped forward.
A worker nearby reminded them, "The dimmed icons on the screen indicate that the military is temporarily out of stock. If you choose this type, you'll have to wait at least half a month to receive it."
"understood."
Chen Lie stepped forward, carefully looked at the resources on the screen, and began to select.
He certainly wouldn't consider resources that are temporarily out of stock; he couldn't wait half a month.
Just then, a middle-aged general, accompanied by several soldiers, entered the hall.
Just as they were about to go up to the second floor through the hall, the officer saw Chen Gequn and immediately went up to him.
"Is it a grid group?"
Upon seeing the middle-aged general, Chen Gequn looked somewhat surprised: "Commander Wei?"
"It really is Ge Qun! Didn't you retire? What are you doing here?"
The middle-aged officer asked.
"Well, I accumulated a military merit before I retired from the army, right? Now my son Wudao needs resources, so I plan to use that merit today," Chen Gequn said.
"Oh? You must be Chen Lie?"
"That's right, I didn't expect Commander Wei to still remember."
"I not only remember your children, but I also remember that you had a daughter before the accident."
What? You're giving your son the military merits, and your daughter doesn't object?
Chen Gequn didn't say much, only that, "I've already spoken to my daughter. My son urgently needs resources right now, so we can only go along with him for now."
The middle-aged general turned his gaze to Chen Lie: "This is Chen Lie?"
"Yes!"
Chen Gequn said to Chen Lie, "Chen Lie, this is my father's regimental commander when he joined the army. He is now one of the two major generals in the Dongchuan Military Region, Uncle Wei Hongye."
The job Dad got in Yunchuan after his military service was found with the help of your Uncle Wei.
Chen Lie greeted Wei Hongye, saying, "Uncle Wei."
Wei Hongye nodded slightly to Chen Lie: "You've grown up so much in the blink of an eye."
It's a pity about your father. Back then, he was the most promising mid-level military officer in Dongchuan Province. If it weren't for that accident, even if he couldn't reach my position, he would definitely have reached the rank of general more than ten years later.
You must strive to do well and get into a military academy someday, so you can be promoted directly to lieutenant officer after graduation.
Chen Lie nodded in agreement.
"Commander Wei, my son is much more promising than me. Some time ago, he successfully joined the provincial youth genius team."
"What? Chen Lie has joined the provincial youth genius team?"
Wei Hongye was immediately startled, and the way he looked at Chen Lie changed.
Those who join the provincial youth genius group are undoubtedly the cream of the crop, the best among millions.
"Ge Qun, your son has really made you proud. My eldest son didn't even meet the standard to join the provincial youth genius team. Chen Lie, you're really something."
"Uncle Wei, you flatter me," Chen Lie replied.
"I'm just telling the truth, what's with the praise?"
After Wei Hongye finished speaking, he said to the soldiers accompanying him, "You guys go about your business, I'll stay here for a while."
"yes!"
Upon hearing this, several soldiers immediately left the hall.
"Gequn, besides my son at Blue Star University, I have a little daughter."
"That's Ranran. You held her when she turned one, remember?"
Chen Gequn thought for a moment, then said, "Ranran, I remember. It seems like it was about fifteen or sixteen years ago. I saw her once at her first birthday party, and I haven't seen her since."
Wei Hongye said, "Ranran's mother was from Yunchuan. At that time, Ranran's mother disliked the martial arts environment in Dongchuan Province, so Ranran's mother suggested sending her to Yunchuan to take the martial arts exam. I was too busy with military affairs to stop her."
For the past ten years or so, Ranran has spent most of her time living in Yunnan Province, and her martial arts achievements are clearly visible, far surpassing those of her peers in Dongchuan Province.
In the second semester of my first year of high school, I joined the elite class, and then two years ago I joined the Yunnan-Chuan Province Genius Training Camp.
"Ranran should only be 17 years old this year, right? So she joined the Yunchuan Province Genius Training Camp when she was not even 17 years old?"
This is excellent talent.
"Alright, Gequn, Chen Lie has better talent. Ranran seems to have joined the genius training camp before she was even 17 years old, but thanks to me and her mother, she has enjoyed many times more resources than other peers."
As soon as she applied for the martial arts exam, I bought more than a dozen sets of spiritual energy crystal cards to help her cultivate a martial art. As a result, it only took her a little over a month to break through the 1 point in her Qi and Blood value. You should know that it would take others more than half a year to reach this stage.
After Ranran's Qi and Blood value broke through 1, I arranged for all kinds of precious tonics, exotic beast meat, and medicinal baths worth millions of star coins to achieve today's results.
There's simply no comparison to someone like Chen Lie who relies purely on talent.
"Commander Wei, you can't say that—"
"Alright, I understand."
Wei Hongye waved to Chen Gequn and continued, "Ranran's martial arts have improved a lot this year at the Yunchuan Province Genius Training Camp, and she is about to meet the standard to be shortlisted for the provincial youth genius team."
Not long ago, an acquaintance from Yunchuan contacted me, saying that Ranran's registered residence, birthplace, and parents are all in Dongchuan Province, so she cannot join the Yunchuan Provincial Youth Genius Team. I asked around and found out that it was indeed the case.
So, about two weeks ago, I transferred Ranran to the Dongchuan Province Genius Training Camp.
However, Ranran has always lived in Yunchuan. Her primary school, junior high school, and martial arts high school were all in Yunchuan.
Therefore, an instructor at the Dongchuan Province Genius Training Camp reminded me that if Ranran couldn't stay at the Dongchuan Province Genius Training Camp for a full year, the Dongchuan Province Martial Arts Association wouldn't recognize her, and Ranran would most likely not be able to successfully advance to the Dongchuan Province Junior Genius Team.
"Oh? Does that mean Ranran will be delayed for a year?" Chen Gequn asked.
"Ranran's age is the golden period for martial arts training, and I certainly can't let her miss out on a year of it."
An acquaintance of mine in the Martial Arts Association suggested a method: find three current members of the Dongchuan Province Genius Team to jointly vouch for Ranran, proving that Ranran is not from Yunchuan and did not come to Dongchuan to obtain resources fraudulently.
"So, Commander Wei wants Chen Lie to vouch for Ranran?" Chen Gequn asked.
"Yes, yes, that's exactly what I meant. I've already found two current members of the Dongchuan Province Genius Team, and I'm only one short."
"If Chen Lie is willing to vouch for Ranran, we will definitely reward him handsomely," Wei Hongye said.
Instead of making a decision for his son, Chen Gequn turned his attention to Chen Lie.
Chen Lie vaguely remembered that Wei Hongye was his father's former superior. When his father had just retired from the army, Wei Hongye often visited his family. Although they had almost lost contact afterward, this was quite normal.
It's impossible to expect a high-ranking military leader in Dongchuan who is usually busy with military affairs to pay attention to an officer who has retired for some reason for more than ten years.
Chen Lie nodded: "Okay."
Upon hearing this, Wei Hongye's face lit up with joy and he said, "That's great, Ge Qun. Don't rush off later, come to my office for a drink of water."
I must treat everyone to lunch today.
Chen Gequn said, "Commander Wei, you're too kind."
"Of course." Wei Hongye nodded, then said to Chen Lie, "Chen Lie, take your time choosing. I'll call Ranran and ask her to come over."
From now on, we'll all be members of the provincial youth talent team. Getting to know each other will allow us to look out for one another.
"good!"
Chen Lie nodded, walked to the screen, and selected a rare martial arts treasure that could enhance qi and blood.
Seeing that Chen Lie had made his selection, Wei Hongye instructed the staff beside him, "Make special arrangements. Before they leave today, we must deliver this martial arts treasure that enhances qi and blood to them."
"Yes, General Wei!"
Wei Hongye nodded, then looked at Chen Lie and his son and said, "Ge Qun, Chen Lie, come to my office for a cup of tea."
"My wife and daughter are still waiting in the lobby next door," Chen Gequn said.
"Then let's invite them together. I know Yuelan well; I've been classmates with her older brother for over ten years. You two even met through me. Let's go over first."
"Okay, let's go then!"
Chen Gequn led Chen Lie to Wei Hongye's office.
Wei Hongye personally served Chen Gequn and Chen Lie two cups of tea.
"Ge Qun, I remember Chen Lie just turned 18, right? When did he join the provincial youth genius team?"
After having the two sit down, Wei Hongye asked.
"Chen Lie has only been a member of the provincial youth genius team for less than a month."
"Oh? I remember Ranran's Qi and Blood value has been close to four digits since she applied for the martial arts exam. I have spent over a billion Star Yuan on her."
Fortunately, Ranran's mother was a shrewd businesswoman; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to come up with so many Star Coins.
How much money have you spent on Chen Lie's martial arts?
"This—" Chen Gequn had never known that it would cost so many star coins to train a member of the provincial youth genius team. He said, "Chen Lie forbids us from purchasing resources. From the time we applied for the martial arts exam until now, it hasn't actually cost the family much."
Wei Hongye asked in bewilderment, "How could his martial arts have reached this level?"
Chen Lie then said, "It's very simple, just try to get official resources and subsidies from Blue Star."
"There are limits to resource subsidies, aren't there?" Wei Hongye asked.
"Oh, when I was in the genius training camp, because of the rules, I could charge each student 2,000 martial arts association points. In two months, I could have more than a million points."
"This is indeed extremely profitable."
After saying, "You're much better than Ranran," Wei Hongye fell silent. One million points is equivalent to three billion star coins.
This is something only the most talented trainees at the top of the training camp can enjoy.
Chen Lie is truly capable; it's no exaggeration to say he's a prodigy from a humble background.
Unlike his daughter, who would never have achieved what she has without her parents' help.
Before long, a sweet-looking girl in a white dress walked into the office.
"Dad, why are you in such a hurry to see me? Is there something you need?"
I'm currently discussing martial arts with a friend.
When Wei Hongye saw the sweet-looking girl enter, he immediately stood up and introduced her: "Ge Qun, Chen Lie, this is my youngest daughter, Wei Ranran."
"Ranran, come over and say hello to your Uncle Chen and Brother Chen Lie."
After the introduction, Wei Hongye immediately waved to his daughter, Wei Ranran.
Wei Ranran walked up to her father, glanced at Chen Gequn and his son Chen Lie, and asked, "Dad, who are these?"
"This is your Uncle Chen Gequn, a former comrade-in-arms of your father. He even held you at your first birthday party."
This is your brother Chen Lie, your Uncle Chen's son.
Upon hearing this, Wei Ranran greeted Chen Gequn, saying, "Hello, Uncle Chen."
"Hmm." Chen Gequn stood up: "Hello, Ranran."
Why didn't you greet your brother Chen Lie?
Wei Ranran pouted and said, "Dad, what era are we living in? Still talking about brothers and sisters? That's too tongue-twisting."
We're all the same age, so we usually call each other classmates.
Hello Chen Lie, I'm Wei Ranran.
"You little rascal—"
Wei Hongye shook his head.
Do you remember what I told you?
If you want to successfully join the Dongchuan Province Genius Group, you must have three current members of the Dongchuan Province Genius Group vouch for you.
Your brother Chen Lie is a member of the Dongchuan Province Genius Team, and he has just agreed to vouch for you.
Wei Ranran immediately looked at Chen Lie and asked in surprise, "You're a member of the Dongchuan Province Genius Team?"
Chen Lie nodded and said, "Yes."
"How old are you?"
Wei Hongye coughed twice: "Ranran, your brother Chen Lie promised to vouch for you, why aren't you thanking him right away? What are you trying to do by asking all these questions?"
"How old are you?"
Wei Hongye coughed twice: "Ranran, your brother Chen Lie promised to vouch for you, why aren't you thanking him right away? What are you trying to do by asking all these questions?"
"Dad, I'm just curious."
"No need to be curious anymore. Let me tell you, your brother Chen Lie is 18 years old. Unlike you, he didn't rely on his family for help. He joined the provincial youth genius team all by himself."
Who are you kidding?
Wei Ranran inwardly scoffed. She didn't believe that anyone could break through to four digits purely on their own Qi and Blood Points; it was just a matter of how much Star Essence they consumed.
He boldly declared that in the entire three provinces of central Sichuan, Ji Lingxuan was the only person who could rely solely on herself without family support.
Are people like Ji Lingxuan commonplace?
Besides, it's not that Ji Lingxuan doesn't want to rely on her family, it's that she can't. Who would complain about their blood and qi increasing too quickly?
