Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 434 Two graduating students went abroad.
The methods are devised by people.

The earth won't stop spinning just because someone is missing, and a company won't go bankrupt just because someone is missing.

Of course, some people may be crucial to the company, but they are by no means irreplaceable.

If there really is such a person, then it's the boss's problem.

In Xu Yue's view, it is highly undesirable for a boss to control a company by doing everything himself.

Xu Yue rarely interfered in the affairs of the farm, but the farm was under his control.

Tian Yizhi had no ulterior motives, not because Xu Yue gave him a lot, but because even if he had any ulterior motives, it would be useless.

Xu Yue's use of force to intimidate was secondary; more importantly, the people in key departments of the farm were his people.

Of course, every company's situation is different.

Xu Yue never imagined that his father-in-law and brother-in-law would be like him.

It's just something we say casually during a chat.

Xu Yue was also familiar with the situation of the Zhang family's companies.

The Spring Festival in Taoyuan Village is becoming more and more lively.

Those who are doing well outside will come back every year for the Chinese New Year.

The Xu family's home was bustling for several days, but gradually quieted down as Zhang Zelin and the others returned to Yanjing.

Zhang Zelin and the others planned to return home after the Lantern Festival.

Unfortunately, I'm too busy.

Even Yang Qingyi is very busy these days.

However, she actually enjoys it.

Who would have thought that at his age, he would be able to build such a large enterprise?

Yang Qingyi's beauty salon, as well as her facial masks and other beauty products, are currently very popular.

Business is booming.

Although it's expensive, there are too many wealthy people willing to spend money on it.

“I’ve advised my parents to find a manager or something, but they don’t trust the company.”

Zhang Ruoxi sighed and said to Xu Yue.

She really didn't want to see her parents so busy.

“Everyone has their own ideas,” Xu Yue said. “I think your mother is enjoying her busy life now. The life you like, they may not like.”

Neither Xu Yue nor Zhang Ruoxi actually have much ambition for their careers.

But others might not be so.

They don't particularly like money, but they enjoy the process of making it.

Success in their careers is also a manifestation of their self-worth.

Zhang Ruoxi nodded.

What kind of life does she like?
This is life now.

Taking care of the children, growing vegetables, occasionally strolling around the village, or meeting up with friends to play cards.
Read a book, enjoy the scenery, and savor life in your leisure time.

Money is enough as long as it's sufficient.

"Your brother wants to, but unfortunately your dad won't give him the chance."

Xu Yue added with a smile.

Zhang Ruohai is clearly more playful than career-minded.

“Someone has to inherit the family businesses, right?” Zhang Ruoxi said. “My brother is in the military, and it’s impossible for me to inherit them either. If he doesn’t, who will?”

“Other families are fighting tooth and nail for it, but your family doesn’t want anyone,” Xu Yue said. “After Ruohai gets married, he might become much more career-oriented.”

Zhang Ruoxi nodded.

Men's thoughts differ before and after marriage, especially their thoughts.

The festive atmosphere of the Spring Festival gradually fades, especially after the Lantern Festival.

The village was still lively during the Lantern Festival, mainly due to tourists, not villagers.

After the Lantern Festival, schools reopened.

But Xue Jing arrived.

"Two graduating students are missing?"

Xue Jing got straight to the point.

Because of the food served in the school cafeteria, most of the teachers and students will return to school after Lunar New Year's Eve.

Even though the meals at home are plentiful, I'm not used to them anymore.

But now the Lantern Festival has passed, and schools have reopened, yet those two students still haven't returned to school.

"Did you make the call?"

Xu Yue spoke up, sensing that something was amiss.

"Can't get through!"

Xue Jing shook his head; this was the real reason he had come to find Xu Yue.

"Give me a copy of those two's files, and I'll have the Special Administration Bureau investigate," Xu Yue said. "We'll only know the specifics after the investigation. They have second-level cultivation, so it's impossible for them to disappear without a trace."

As graduation approaches, even if facing enemies at the third level, while not necessarily able to protect themselves, they shouldn't be completely unable to send out any messages.

People in the domestic spiritual community certainly wouldn't dare to make a move.

That leaves only foreign powers.

Xu Yue wanted to see which force was blind to its own power. Wasn't the prestige he had established in Hong Kong enough?
He wouldn't mind using another force to establish his authority.

Upon hearing this, Xue Jing quickly handed the two students' files to Xu Yue.

One was named Fang Yi, and the other was named Yang Jiancheng.

Both of them were from Yunnan Province, and from the same city.

Xu Yue then made a phone call to Jing Guohua.

Two graduating students have gone missing?
This still caught Jing Guohua's attention.

He knew very well how much resources Xu Yue had invested and how much he had sacrificed to cultivate such a student.

He immediately ordered an investigation.

"Could something really have happened?"

Xue Jing frowned and said.

His fear of something going wrong wasn't about taking responsibility, but rather because he understood how difficult it was to cultivate such talent.

So much effort was put in, and the reward was just around the corner, but it was gone.

Anyone would feel uncomfortable in this situation.

"You'll find out soon enough."

Xu Yue shook his head. Perhaps something had happened, but it might not have been the two students.

The news came quickly.

Upon hearing this, Xu Yue's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

"what happened?"

Seeing Xu Yue's expression, Xue Jing quickly asked.

"Those two students and their families have gone abroad."

Xu Yue said lightly.

His tone was calm, but his eyes were sharp.

"You went abroad?"

Xue Jing was stunned when he heard this, and then he was filled with boundless rage.

"This is treason!" Xue Jing said coldly. "This matter cannot be left like this!"

“This matter can’t just be left like this. But you don’t need to worry about it,” Xu Yue said. “Those two seem to be people recommended by the Special Administration Bureau.”

The first batch of trainees were recommended by farms, special management bureaus, and agricultural research institutes.

Meng Hao graduated from a prestigious university, but he was also recommended by the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

The Special Administration Bureau actually recommends very few people.

This time, two of them actually moved their entire families abroad, so they definitely won't be held accountable.

Not only will the person who recommended them be in trouble, but the two who fled abroad will certainly not be spared either.

Even if the Special Administration Bureau lets him go, Xu Yue won't let him go either.

Xu Yue will not only target those two students, but also make those who try to poach his talent feel the pain.

Do you think it's so easy to undermine me, Xu Yue?

"At the school?"

Xue Jing hesitated, wondering whether the school would keep this a secret or issue a public statement after such an incident.

"Let's wait and report later," Xu Yue said. "How to deal with those two depends on what the higher-ups decide."

Xue Jing nodded and said nothing more.

He knew very well that this matter would likely be handled calmly and quickly.

If there's no reaction, won't the other graduating students start to have other ideas?

As for the contract that was signed?
Sometimes contracts are the least binding thing. "With such generous terms offered, how could anyone still run away?"

Zhang Ruoxi was somewhat surprised, after all, Xu Yue was very kind to the students in the academy.

They didn't charge any fees during his studies and even invested a lot of resources to help him improve. After graduation, no matter what choice he made, he was always given excellent treatment.

Even those who stayed on as faculty members received salaries and benefits that other colleges couldn't match.

"Human nature is inherently greedy, so what's so surprising?" Xu Yue said. "I guess other forces offered him conditions that were hard to refuse? It's not surprising that someone wanted to steal it."

"Could they have been forced?"

Zhang Ruoxi raised another possibility.

"Based on the information the Special Administration Bureau has now, that's impossible," Xu Yue said, shaking his head. "Their trip abroad was planned and organized."

“They can’t wait to graduate, even though there’s only one term left,” Zhang Ruoxi said. “Luckily, they didn’t wait until after graduation.”

"Ok!"

Xu Yue nodded.

He's still thinking about what graduation gifts to prepare for the graduating students.

He had considered storage rings, magical artifacts, and other such items, but he was still somewhat hesitant.

Although it's only the second realm, because it's the Qi Refining stage, it allows the use of these things.

Now it seems like I should just forget about storage rings and the like.

That thing is too important.

As for the ritual implements, he hesitated.

Is there a possibility of being sexually assaulted?

That magical artifact can increase the graduate's ability to protect himself.

"Do you think those two already had problems, or did they develop problems after entering school and achieving academic success, and were then tempted?"

Zhang Ruoxi looked at Xu Yue and asked.

Zhang Ruoxi could sense how Xu Yue felt after something like this happened.

Although Xu Yue doesn't visit the school often, he treats the students very well and has high hopes for them.

I haven't even graduated yet, and someone has already betrayed me.

Going abroad?

Why go abroad? What's the purpose of going abroad?
This is not just a betrayal of Xu Yue; in Zhang Ruoxi's view, it is treason.

This is about taking the cultivation methods and supernatural abilities of farmers abroad.

"Can foreigners practice the methods of farming?"

The next day, Jing Guohua came.

This matter has clearly attracted the attention of the Special Administration Bureau.

"The cultivation method is simply breathing techniques, which foreigners should be able to learn," Xu Yue said. "However, those supernatural abilities are very difficult to learn without a certain foundation in Chinese culture. Have you found out which force was behind this?"

"honeycomb!"

Jing Guohua spoke.

"What does that mean?" Xu Yue asked. "They went to great lengths to get them out, so they should be heavily protecting them now, right?"

honeycomb?

Xu Yue was naturally aware of this force.

Xu Yue now knows a little about the various cultivation forces abroad.

Hive is somewhat similar to the Special Administration Bureau in China, as it is a state department.

The only difference is that the Special Administration Bureau belongs to the military, while Hive belongs to the Central Intelligence Agency.

"What's your opinion?" Jing Guohua asked Xu Yue. "They are under a lot of protection over there, so the chances of capturing them are very low. Even if they were, it's questionable whether it's worth it."

"Just kill them?"

Xu Yue asked a question, and Jing Guohua nodded.

Given the difficulty of cultivating such land, a points-based system is feasible.

They deserved to die.

"Are you confident?" Xu Yue asked. "Should I make a trip and bring them back? I'm actually quite curious to know whether they had problems before they came or if the problems arose after they arrived."

Wasted?

But if they're crippled, they know quite a lot.

They may be useless themselves, but they can teach others.

Eliminate them directly, in one step, and once and for all.

But he also felt that killing them directly would be too easy for them.

They should be brought back and made to repent.

The main purpose is to set an example for others in the school.

If we kill him, are we supposed to show the body to the students at the school?

"You're going to go and bring him back?" Jing Guohua's lips twitched as he said, "If you go abroad, you'll be playing right into their hands."

"What can they do to me?" Xu Yue said. "Are they going to use a nuclear weapon to keep me here?"

Ok?
Upon hearing this, Jing Guohua looked at Xu Yue with some surprise.

What do you mean?
Do we need to use nuclear weapons to keep him here?

Are the Five Realms that powerful?

“Using nuclear weapons is unlikely, but the possibility of deploying the military is not small,” Jing Guohua said. “That country doesn’t care about military ethics. The key is that you also need to bring two people with you.”

"Ordinary missiles can't hurt me," Xu Yue said. "Ordinary troops can't hurt me either!"

"The Fifth Realm is that powerful?"

Jing Guohua was somewhat surprised, but he dared not make a promise easily.

After all, Xu Yue was much more important than those two students.

If Xu Yue were to be ruined for the sake of those two students, it would be a huge loss.

"Don't believe me? Let me show you."

Xu Yue asked with a smile, and then instantly appeared beside Jing Guohua, grabbing his shoulder.

"what!"

Before Jing Guohua could react, everything went black. When he saw the light again, he no longer needed to go to the villa.

"School!"

Jing Guohua looked at Xu Yue in shock, somewhat incredulous.

"Your home must be more than ten miles from the school, right?"

Jing Guohua snapped out of his daze and looked at Xu Yue in shock.

That's more than ten miles in the blink of an eye!
What army could catch up with that speed?
Even missiles probably couldn't reach it.

Jing Guohua knew very well that Xu Yue was extremely sensitive to danger when he was at the fourth level. If a missile were to be fired, he would definitely be able to sense it in advance and escape instantly.

In an instant, it covered several kilometers. A small nuclear bomb probably wouldn't be able to hurt Xu Yue, right?
Of course, the kill radius of a nuclear bomb is affected by a variety of factors, including the yield of the nuclear bomb, the method of detonation (airburst or ground explosion), the altitude of the explosion, and weather conditions.

"What kind of supernatural power is this?"

Seeing Xu Yue nod, Jing Guohua couldn't help but ask.

In an instant, it covered more than ten miles.

With this supernatural ability, it's practically a life-saving skill!

"Earth Escape Technique!" Xu Yue said, "It's only because of the wondrous use of the Earth Spirit Orb that it has such an effect."

Does the Earth Spirit Orb have such a wonderful use?
It should enhance the effect of Earth Escape Technique.

Perhaps these kinds of spirit orbs have a enhancing effect on related attribute supernatural abilities.

But that's still quite astonishing.

Xu Yue's move was nothing short of divine.

“You want to personally go abroad and bring him back? I can’t make that decision on my own; I have to report it,” Jing Guohua said. “The country isn’t trying to restrict your freedom, it’s just… you should understand, right?”

Do you understand?
Of course, I understand.

It's simply that he's been targeted by numerous foreign forces.

Things are alright domestically; those forces don't dare to cause trouble.

But abroad, it's hard to say.

Xu Yue wants to go abroad, which doesn't require approval from above, but if they don't approve, Xu Yue doesn't know where to find those two people even after he goes abroad.

Ultimately, special management departments will still need to provide assistance.

However, Xu Yue believed that the higher-ups would agree.

"Are you sure?"

It's not enough for the higher-ups to agree; the family also needs to agree.

Zhang Ruoxi did not immediately try to persuade Xu Yue, but instead asked him a question.

She clearly didn't want Xu Yue to take any risks.
