Chapter 170 Emperor, I’m Afraid
Chapter 170 Emperor, I’m Afraid
outside.
In the open space of the temporary camp.
Yan Chi was surrounded by a group of people, chattering about something.
"Adjutant Yan, are you really at the SSS level?" Everyone looked at Yan Chi with starry eyes.
"Yes, thanks to Boss Jiang for helping me, otherwise I would never be able to get past SS in my life." Yan Chi was surrounded and admired by so many people.
It would be a lie to say that he was calm inside.
But he will never forget the kindness that Boss Jiang has shown him.
"That's right. Our boss Jiang is the most powerful person! As long as she is around, I feel a lot more at ease." Wu Xiaoyi continued to flatter Jiang Baobao as always.
"Adjutant Yan, I heard that you fought against the Zerg from the SSS down there. Tell us, who is better between the two of you?"
Just as Yan Chi was about to start his lecture, Jiang Baobao suddenly walked out.
"Hello, Boss Jiang!" Wu Xiaoyi was the first to notice Jiang Baobao and hurriedly stood up to greet him.
"Hello, Boss Jiang."
"Hello, Boss Jiang!"
"Hello." Jiang Baobao responded with a smile.
"Boss Jiang, is there anything I can help you with?" Wu Xiaoyi approached him in a fawning manner.
"Yes, yes, but..."
"Choose me, choose me, Boss Jiang, tell me what you need."
"I can, too, Boss Jiang. I can help, too."
"Uh..." Jiang Baobao thought for two seconds, then asked, "I understand your feelings, but can you cook?"
Everyone:......
……
"Hey, Cao Sheng, Boss Jiang said that both sides of the meat should be dipped in seasoning."
"Adjutant Yan, you have to do this first, then this, and finally this. Only in this way can the marinated meat taste good when grilled!"
"Xiao Jiang! This is raw meat and you can't eat it!"
At this time, in the makeshift kitchen, dozens of men were busy and exhausted.
As Jiang Baobao's most loyal fan and also a senior food lover, Wu Xiaoyi understood everything Jiang Baobao told him immediately.
Although he had never actually tried it, he had seen the general pickling steps countless times in food tutorials.
So, when he heard that Jiang Baobao wanted to treat everyone to barbecue, he knew what to do.
As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers.
With everyone's joint efforts, several hundred kilograms of meat slices were marinated.
As pots of meat and lettuce were brought to the table, tonight's barbecue feast officially began.
At first, only Jiang Baobao and the emperor's ministers were roasting the dumplings. Later, everyone understood and started roasting the dumplings as well.
Everything is prepared, and all they need to do is control the heat, so barbecue is not difficult for them.
Everyone was very satisfied with the meal and praised the meal repeatedly. Even the gloom of being besieged by Zerg in the past few days dissipated.
"General Li, there is another group of people gathered outside who want to see Boss Jiang."
Li Shian listened to the report and subconsciously looked at Jiang Baobao.
"See me? Why see me?" Jiang Baobao asked curiously while eating fruit.
Li Shian smiled and said, "Two groups of people have come here before. I knew you were busy, so I sent them all back. I didn't expect these people to be so persistent.
It was not before that they knew that you had provided us with supplies, so they came here to thank you. "
"Is that so..." Jiang Baobao put down the fruit plate and wiped his mouth with his sleeve. "What's the big deal? I'll just go and meet him."
The group accompanied Jiang Baobao to the outside of the camp.
At this time, the outside was already crowded with people.
It was not until Jiang Baobao came out that someone shouted, "Boss Jiang came out."
Then everyone knelt down together.
This scene stunned Jiang Baobao.
She subconsciously wanted to avoid them, but there were too many people.
"What are you doing? Get up, quickly." She said while looking at Li Shian beside her.
Li Shian shook his head, indicating that he was powerless.
She sighed, walked quickly forward, and tried to help the leading woman up.
"Boss Jiang," the woman shook her head and refused to move. "If it weren't for you, our Tiankuixing would be finished this time. Boss Jiang, we sincerely thank you. We don't have much money, so we can only use this stupid way to express our gratitude. Boss Jiang, thank you!"
The woman's elbow was supported by Jiang Baobao, but she had no intention of remembering it. When she was moved, she even wanted to kowtow to Jiang Baobao.
"Stop, stop, stop!" Jiang Baobao waved his hands quickly.
She squatted down and looked at the woman level, "If you really want to thank me, then stand up. I don't like people kneeling to me at every turn."
When the woman heard that Jiang Baobao didn't like it, she immediately stood up and took Jiang Baobao with her.
She said with a slightly awkward tone, "I'm sorry, Boss Jiang, I didn't know you didn't like this..."
Jiang Baobao could feel the woman's slightly trembling hand.
She shook it gently, "It's okay, I know what you mean, and I don't blame you. Please believe me, the days ahead will get better and better."
Hearing this encouragement, the woman couldn't help but cry, "Believe it, I believe it, we all believe it! If my man was still alive, he would believe it too..."
After hearing this, she glanced behind her, at the faces that were frightened but full of hope.
I felt a pang of bitterness in my heart.
"Okay, okay, Boss Jiang is very tired. You've met and thanked me. Go back and have a rest. Don't forget, there are still several high-level Zerg trapped underground!" Li Shi'an waved his hand and started to drive people away for the third time.
After the crowd dispersed, she listened to Li Shi'an's description and realized that the people on Tiankui Star lived even more miserably than those on Qimingxing.
“The woman just now is called Manna. She married here from the Federation. She originally had four sons, but now there is only one left.
Her husband also died in the battle against the Zerg last year. Her only son is also in the military area now. If it weren't for you, Boss Jiang, bringing people here, we might have been...
So Boss Jiang, don’t blame her…”
Jiang Baobao shook his head. "I don't blame her. On the contrary, I think they are really amazing. By the way, is her youngest son also in the military area now?"
"Yes." Li Shian sighed lightly, "I know her family's situation, so I arranged for her son to be in the logistics department. He will not be required to go to the battlefield unless it is absolutely necessary."
"Take me to see him, and tell me in detail about Tiankuixing's current situation."
"Row."
……
This night.
Jiang Baobao's heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
She didn't know what was going on, but thinking about the plight of these people, she suddenly felt compassion in her heart.
That feeling affected her deeply, making her unable to sleep, let alone think.
She felt very stuffy in the tent, so she decided to go out for a walk and get some fresh air.
As soon as I walked out of the tent, I met the emperor's minister.
"You haven't slept yet?"
"You haven't slept yet?"
Two voices sounded at the same time, and then both of them laughed.
"I can't sleep, let's go for a walk."
Jiang Baobao followed the route and walked side by side with the emperor's minister.
"I noticed that you seemed to be in a bad mood just now, so I came to see you." The emperor looked at her sideways and spoke softly.
"You discovered all this?" Jiang Baobao teased with a smile, "Your heart is not like a man's at all, you are really delicate."
The two walked slowly, and the emperor still looked at her, "If you have anything bothering you, you can tell me, maybe I can help."
Jiang Baobao stopped when he heard this.
The light lengthened their shadows.
Jiang Baobao looked up at him, with some confusion about the future in his eyes.
"Imperial minister, I'm afraid."
