Chapter 147 The Awakening of the Working Spirit
Chapter 147 The Awakening of the Working Spirit
Diana looked at Franklin and gestured to the bag of gold coins in her hand.
"Brother Klin, what about you? Do you still need money?"
Franklin turned his head away.
"Mere gold coins? It's easy for someone as noble as me to acquire them; I don't need you to give them to me!"
Diana felt that the two of them were acting strangely today, probably because of Gene, but it wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
Upon entering the house, Gene and Recanal were drinking tea.
Diana introduced the group to everyone, and after they got to know each other, Gene invited them to eat.
"Anna, your Uncle Nal got his salary and bought you lots of things."
Not only did Recanal buy a lot of food, but he also bought small gifts for everyone. It has to be said that this usually simple and honest big man is quite thoughtful.
Diana was deeply moved and thanked them profusely; the other girls also expressed their gratitude.
Seeing everyone so happy, Recanal became even more convinced of his path as an employee.
'I've made up my mind! I'll definitely work hard from now on and earn more money!'
Just as everyone had taken out the food and were about to start eating, Diana remembered that there were still two people outside 'getting some fresh air'~
"I'll go call Sister Dolly and Brother Klin."
Gene spoke up to stop him, deliberately letting his voice carry outside.
"Anna, they probably don't have much of an appetite."
The two people at the door spoke almost simultaneously.
"Yes! Anna, we have no appetite!"
Diana finally understood; she guessed the two of them would get a scolding in the end.
Diana approached Gene, massaging his legs and shoulders, and after much pleading and cajoling, the two were finally sentenced.
If it weren't for Diana's persuasion, the two of them would probably have been guarding the gate for days.
······
That morning, everyone got up early, packed their things, and couldn't wait to go to the research base. They were all very excited about taking a plane, and even Xiaobai was eager to try it out.
Diana understood their excitement; she felt the same way when she was piloting the plane that day.
On the runway of the research base.
Adolf watched as the group excitedly boarded the plane.
"Anna, are you sure it's okay? Without a professional runway, it'll be difficult for the plane to land!"
Diana replied confidently:
"It's alright, Master, I can use my 'qi' to make the plane land vertically!"
Adolf was speechless. You've really figured out how to use this plane!
"In short, safety comes first, and you must be back before school on Monday!"
Diana watched as everyone boarded the plane via the movable staircase.
"Master, don't worry! I'll just teleport back when the time comes!"
"We're off now, Master, bye-bye~"
After saying goodbye to Adolf, Diana boarded the plane and told everyone to sit down and fasten their seatbelts.
"There will be some turbulence during takeoff, so please stay in your seats. You can move around freely once the plane has stabilized!"
Little White, perched on Diana's shoulder, pointed and gestured to everyone, looking quite the part.
"Alright! Let's go!"
"set off!"
The plane was filled with excited shouts from the crowd.
Diana went to the cockpit and skillfully took over the controls of the plane. The actions seemed simple, but they were actually quite easy.
With the sound of the propellers, the plane took off smoothly. The plane was great in every way except for its poor sound insulation.
"I'll have to ask my master to improve it properly another day!"
As the plane gradually ascended and passed through the clouds, various exclamations arose.
"My goodness! It's flown up to the clouds!"
"Lilia, look! We're almost at Oliver City!"
Lilia gripped the handrail tightly, her eyes closed. She wanted to look but dared not. She was a little afraid of heights, and the weightlessness during takeoff made her feel insecure. Even the fur on her ears and tail stood on end.
"Stop talking, I'm not looking at the cat."
"Meow?"
Kola covered her mouth and chuckled. Goodness, she'd even uttered the primitive language!
After this little incident, and several hours of flight, the group finally saw the city of Williere.
Diana found an open area outside the city to land, using her aura manipulation to bring the plane to a vertical landing, making the glider feel like a helicopter.
Diana arrived at the plane's private compartment and saw everyone off. She counted them and realized the number was wrong. After searching around, she found Lilia lying weakly on the table.
"Lilia, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Lilia's ears drooped.
"My lord! I'm fine, just a little dizzy, meow."
"Meow?"
Diana found her way of speaking strangely cute, so she patted her head and used her physical magic to strike back.
Lilia looked completely relaxed, and her spirits immediately lifted, as evidenced by her constantly swaying black tail.
"Sir, I feel much better! Touch me a little more!"
Diana paused in her movements.
"Hey~ Why are you talking normally now? You were so cute talking like that just now!"
Lilia blushed slightly; she felt ashamed of what she had said. Remembering Diana's words, she made up her mind.
Lilia scratched her ear with one hand.
"Is that so, meow?"
Diana nodded repeatedly.
"Yes! That's the feeling, the imitation is very accurate!"
······
Because the plane landed not far from the city of Williere, the scene was still seen by the soldiers patrolling the city walls. They immediately went on alert. Such a huge creature that could fly could only be a dragon!
One of them immediately ran to inform the city lord. By the time the city lord arrived, Diana and her party had already ridden their bicycles to the city gate.
Diana was puzzled. 'Why are the city gates closed in broad daylight? Has some emergency occurred?'
At that moment, Louise saw the familiar figure on the city wall, and she waved and called out.
"Dad, I'm back!"
The city lord received news that a giant dragon was attacking, so he rushed over fully armed. The dragon didn't notice him, but it did notice that his daughter had returned. He immediately ordered his men to open the city gates, and he himself went down from the city wall.
Louise was overjoyed to see her father come to pick her up.
"Dad! How did you know we were coming back?"
The city lord was somewhat embarrassed. 'How was I supposed to know you were coming back! I came to see the dragon!'
"Louise, did you encounter any danger on your way here? Like dragons or something?"
Everyone shook their heads.
The city lord relayed the information provided by the soldiers.
The group exchanged glances and couldn't help but laugh.
"Dad! That's not a dragon! That's an airplane!"
The group explained things to him as they headed toward the manor.
"That's amazing! Anna, I never imagined that such incredible changes would happen so soon after you took over the management of Oliver City!"
"This is all thanks to everyone; I didn't really do anything."
Diana watched as passersby greeted the city lord.
"Uncle, you're really amazing! Everyone respects you!"
The city lord sighed.
"Actually, life isn't very good for everyone. Because of the location, the surrounding land isn't very suitable for growing food, so most of the food has to be bought from elsewhere."
"Although we have a lot of seafood here, it's too far from major cities to be transported here while ensuring freshness. As a result, while we're not starving, our lives aren't exactly comfortable either!"
Diana suddenly said:
"That's easy, just use refrigerated transport!"
The city lord looked puzzled.
"Refrigerated transport? It's not even winter yet! How can it be refrigerated!"
Diana thought for a moment.
“Uncle, leave this matter to me! When I go back, I’ll have them build a railway line from Oliver City to here. Once the trains are running, it will be much easier to transport seafood!”
"We transport grain from there to sell here, and seafood from here to sell there. Perfect!"
Diana couldn't help but give herself a thumbs up in her mind.
'Then I can eat seafood anytime! I'm such a genius!'
