I manifested the Shushan game

Chapter 291 The Chen family is fake! Liu Ye: A huge black pot covering the sky!

News has come from the Shushan Immortal Alliance that a demonic force from beyond the realm has infiltrated the Central Plains. These demonic forces are even more ruthless and vicious than those in the Central Plains, and their demonic energy is far stronger. Furthermore, through investigations by members of the Immortal Alliance, it has been discovered that some members of this demonic force are heading towards the Chen Clan.

The Immortal Alliance has issued a mission: Capture at least three relevant members of the extraterrestrial demonic path, ascertain their motives, and you will receive a reward from the Immortal Alliance!

Chen Han was taken aback when he received the game system notification.

Suddenly, a quest from the Immortal Alliance appeared.

The key issue is the extraterrestrial demonic path.

The former world fighting champion, Habak, was a master of extraterrestrial magic.

Is it because Habak was beaten so badly that someone else is challenging him?
No, if that were the case, given their nature, they would definitely have launched a massive campaign to challenge the Chen family, rather than choosing to go into hiding.

If it came to lying in wait, he did think of one possibility.

...

Linhe County.

Chu Ping and Bao Jing have returned to the county. Along the way, he watched videos online, and the events surrounding the Chen family were becoming increasingly popular online.

All the tourists were talking about how the Chen family suddenly became cooler, and the discussion about the burial of the stone tablet by the Chen family head and Taoist Chen was getting more and more lively.

However, many science bloggers who don't believe it are still popularizing it.

Is the sudden drop in temperature a normal phenomenon caused by a sudden change in weather?

"Isn't it normal for a gust of wind to blow by and then suddenly feel chilly?"

Professor Wu once said regarding the goose incident that normal scientific phenomena should not be confused with metaphysics or even superstition!

Chu Ping felt a strange sense of bewilderment when he saw these videos.

Because he was very clear about the actual situation and had personally participated in it, he understood everything perfectly well.

The key point is that these videos provide scientific information in a logical and well-founded way, making them more convincing than videos posted by tourists.

Even if he were asked to find out for himself that Chen's sudden change in temperature was indeed related to the things Chen had done, he couldn't come up with a perfectly convincing explanation.

Suddenly, I felt a sense of absurdity about this world.

It's like you know a lot of the truth, but there's a group of people who hold authoritative power and will tell you how absurd this truth is, but you have no way to say anything about it.

But upon further reflection, I felt relieved.

That's life. Many people are very clear-headed and understand certain things, but they're just too lazy to talk about them.

Because Professors Bao Jing and the others were going to test the newly brought-back rapeseed, he returned to his office and started processing today's documents.

Linhe County has seen significant development in tourism, which has also brought a lot of investment to the county. After all, with wealthy tycoon Liu Ye and new head of Kaiwei Group Liao Shuang setting examples, many investors have gained confidence in Linhe County.

Because of this, he has to deal with more documents every day.

Many documents can solve the employment problem of dozens of people with just one signature, but similarly, a single signature can also cause damage to the green mountains and clear waters, or other harms.

Therefore, he had to be serious and careful with every signature, and had people investigate and prepare materials as needed.

One document, however, caught his attention: "Notice Regarding the Lifting of the Ban on Chinese Rural Dogs in Fujian Province..."

This was decided upon by the provincial government to lift the ban on keeping Chinese rural dogs in Fujian Province.

More and more cities are lifting the ban on raising livestock.

Normally, such trivial matters wouldn't reach his desk, but he had instructed that all documents related to the Chen family, regardless of size, should be reviewed by him.

This document is related to the Chen family.

The fact that the province issued this document is definitely related to the news story about reporter Wu from the provincial New Urban News interviewing the Chen family's stray dog.

In that news interview video, the Chen family's mongrel dog was incredibly intelligent; anyone with eyes could see that no other pet dog could compare.

This will inspire national pride.

After all, the things passed down from our ancestors thousands of years ago are better than those of others.

More and more people are now paying attention to the things passed down from our ancestors.

Small things are just something to look at and then put aside.

His secretary will send the document to the relevant department to handle the matter of lifting the ban on Chinese rural dogs.

After that, he continued processing the documents.

In the evening, he received a call from Professor Bao. After hearing what the other party said, he hurriedly went to the laboratory that had been assigned to Professor Bao and his group.

The laboratory is very basic, but it is spacious enough. It is currently being renovated and remodeled, but this does not affect Professor Bao and his team's testing and experiments at all.

To be on the safe side, the county also arranged a small team of police officers here, since the rapeseed flowers in Chen's area are related to whether Linhe County can take off.

Upon arriving at Bao Jing's place, Chu Ping couldn't help but ask, "Professor Bao, are the data from your tests accurate?"

His voice trembled because the newly brought-back rapeseed for testing had an oil content exceeding the normal 60%.

The oil content increased significantly in a short period of time.

Based on this calculation, Professor Bao and his colleagues predicted that after the rapeseed is fully matured and dried, the oil content of the rapeseed can be doubled compared to that of normal rapeseed.

How amazing is this?

Bao Jing said definitively, "Chu County, congratulations, your Linhe County is really about to take off."

Chu Ping could hardly contain his joy and immediately said with a smile, "We should inform Mr. Liu of this good news first."

"Yes, yes." Bao Jing immediately nodded with a big smile.

Both Linhe County and his laboratory depend on Mr. Liu's investment.

Linhe County has already planned the land for planting, and is just waiting for Mr. Liu to come up with the money. Once the county approves the documents and the Chen family signs off, everything will be settled.

The laboratory is also waiting for this tycoon's investment to come in so that they can purchase the most advanced equipment and get to work in full swing.

With their current equipment, no matter how much research they do, they are helpless against that special substance.

When Liu Ye received the call, he was working at Chen's office. After taking the Body Tempering Pill for the past two days, he clearly felt that his body was much stronger, and even the gray hair at his temples had decreased significantly.

Today's changes at the Chen family made him realize that the Chen family is becoming more and more like a sacred place on earth.

Given his status, he has been to all sorts of vacation spots; there is absolutely no place in the world that can compare to the Chen family.

But many people don't believe this.

Just like how it got cooler in Chenshi today, that comfortable feeling was absolutely real. He believed that the Chen family head buried that stone for that reason, but he didn't know what was going on.

But look at the popular science articles online; they are well-reasoned and have guided countless people.

Many people firmly believe that the Chen family has real skills, but they're almost promoting themselves as immortals, making it seem like the Chen family can actually cultivate immortality.

This is incorrect.

Liu Ye really wanted to tell these people that he didn't know if the Chen family could cultivate immortality, but he was certain that the Chen family's Demon-Slaying Heavenly Venerable was definitely very powerful.

But his identity will never be explained.

You can't learn something just by being taught; you can learn something by doing it once. If you don't experience it yourself, no one will believe you no matter how much others tell you.

Sometimes, it's impossible to change someone's deeply ingrained beliefs with just a few words.

What frustrates him most is that, given Chen's current situation, whether domestically or internationally, his resorts can't even crack the top 30.

Because the Chen family didn't pay, they simply won't put you in line.

This is similar to a rich list. After the initial draft is completed, it will circulate to some people, and some people will have to spend money to remove their names from the list.

I understand everything I understand.

It's all about money anyway.

After receiving Chu Ping's call, he hurriedly left Chen's place and headed to the county.

He knew about the rapeseed business in China, so when he learned the details of the rapeseed flowers produced by the Chen family, he knew it was a big business opportunity.

I had already instructed my secretary to prepare a business plan for this merit-based estate for the Chen family.

Even if he only owns 30% of it, his wealth ranking will rise significantly after this deal is completed. As soon as Liu Ye arrived at the lab, Bao Jing and the others presented the new test data to this tycoon.

Liu Ye can still understand the most basic test data.

Upon seeing the test results, he beamed with joy: "As expected, the things that the Demon-Subduing Celestial Venerable told the Chen family to grow in his dream are extraordinary."

These words caused Bao Jing and several professors to exchange glances.

Because their hearts have begun to tip in their favor regarding this matter.

Then, a professor suddenly thought of something: "We must keep this a secret. After the experiment officially begins, everyone we recruit must sign a confidentiality agreement. This matter should not be known to others too early."

Professors Bao Jing and the others nodded.

That's true. If others find out, they might rush to research it, creating unnecessary competition, which is never good news.

Even Chu Ping and Liu Ye nodded in agreement.

After all, current research indicates that the special substance will begin to disappear and decrease once it leaves the Linhe County area.

But it takes a long time for it to completely disappear.

In other words, it can definitely be grown in counties near Linhe County as well. According to the pattern, the effect is best in Linhe County, and the effect is much worse in other counties.

Its growth rate, yield, and oil content all exceed those of normal rapeseed.

Then there might be competition for planting, and they might even approach the Chen family.

Therefore, keeping it a secret is the best approach.

The group discussed this matter.

Chu Ping, however, wanted to finalize the promotion of rapeseed flowers as soon as possible, so he said to Liu Ye, "Chairman Liu, our county has already planned the relevant land. Shall we go to the Chen family together?"

Liu Ye nodded: "Okay, let's go take a look, and then go to the Chen family together to finalize things."

Just then, a professor suddenly said with a grim expression, "Look at this video, the Chen family's rapeseed flower business may not be able to be kept secret anymore."

Bao Jing and Chu Ping were taken aback.

"What's going on?" another professor asked.

The professor frowned and said, "I just saw someone tag me to watch a video. When I clicked on it, it was about Chen's rapeseed flower seaweed, and now the video has gone viral online."

Bao Jing's expression changed, and he hurriedly took out his phone, only to find that someone had also tagged him.

What's going on?
He immediately clicked on the video to watch, and saw that it was posted by someone called 'Agriculture Enthusiast': "Hello everyone, recently you should all have seen the video of Chen's rapeseed flower sea, and I'm sure you were all amazed by the beautiful scenery of Chen's rapeseed flower sea."

“Almost every day, videos of Chen’s rapeseed flower fields go viral, and Chen’s dedicated tourism account has gained nearly 200 million followers, which is much faster than many cultural tourism and scenic spot accounts that have been carefully created.”

"But this is not because of anything magical about Chen's rapeseed flowers. Everyone should know that these rapeseed flowers grow very quickly, right? I'll show you a chart, a timeline of news videos from when Chen's rapeseed flowers were exposed to the timeline of their planting."

As the blogger spoke, he took out the collected timelines and graphs for comparison.

Furthermore, the growth time of normal rapeseed flowers was compared, allowing people to more intuitively see the difference in growth rate.

If that's the case, then forget it.

What the blogger said next made Bao Jing and the others' expressions change: "If it were just the growth rate, then the magic of this rapeseed flower would still be limited. But after I visited the Chen family's rapeseed flower field three days ago, I found that the rapeseed flowers produced far more rapeseed than normal rapeseed."

"Moreover, as you know, I enjoy doing research, so I brought these rapeseed seeds back for testing. What I discovered was even more shocking: the oil content of these rapeseed seeds was far higher than that of normal rapeseed seeds."

"Do you know what this means? Currently, most of our rapeseed is imported. Now, with rapeseed that has a high growth rate, high yield, and high oil content, we can completely take control of our rapeseed production."

"Of course, everyone will surely associate such magical rapeseed flowers with the story of Chen's Demon-Subduing Celestial Venerable appearing in a dream. Actually, I want to tell everyone that these are all rumors. Everyone should believe in science."

"This is clearly something that Linhe County and several plant research professors worked on together. For example, this one, Bao Jing, a well-known plant research professor at Qingmin University, has many research results, and this one... and this one..."

"And then there's this one, a leader from Linhe County, and this one, the tycoon Liu Ye. When these people are together, what comes to mind?"

"Many people previously said that he was associated with the Chen family because the Chen family's Demon-Subduing Celestial Venerable was very powerful. Now, if we say that this wealthy man, Liu Ye, invested in these plant professors' research and collaborated with the local Linhe County to develop this new variety of rapeseed, wouldn't that be more reasonable?"

"The previous news about the Chen family's mysterious encounters with the Demon-Subduing Celestial Venerable was actually just a smokescreen that this wealthy man paid to release."

"So, all our attention was drawn to it, and no one suspected that the rapeseed flowers had any connection with this tycoon."

"I can say with certainty that when this rapeseed flower project is completed, this tycoon's net worth and status will definitely see a significant increase."

"This is also why he stayed with the Chen family for so long, and the Chen family was just a lucky one chosen by capital."

“???” Bao Jing.

"???" Chu Ping.

"???" Liu Ye.

"???" The professors were all bewildered.

Bao Jing and his team finally understood why people had tagged them. Upon checking, they found that the people were indeed industry insiders, students, or friends, probably trying to verify the authenticity of the research.

Upon hearing what the blogger said, Liu Ye felt his mouth go dry and he was speechless with frustration.

A massive, black pot that blotted out the sky was falling down on him.

Is this guy an idiot?

He has the energy to invest in researching this kind of thing; why not just find a secluded place? There's no need to go through all this unnecessary trouble.

Moreover, what the hell is this about the Chen family being chosen by capital? Does this guy even understand who the lucky ones are?
The key point is that this video has already gone viral, and after reading the comments section, everyone believes this speculation.

Before long, Liu Ye noticed that many people were sending him messages, clearly trying to find out what was going on.

These people simply want to know if what's being said online is true, or they want to find out if they can get involved in this business.

After all, everyone knows how much profit this market can generate.

However, this business was a meritorious undertaking of the Chen family, and he had no right to reply.

This left him speechless, so he posted a string of helpless emojis on his social media account, along with the message: "Don't believe rumors, don't spread rumors!"

His words are enough to express his stance, aren't they?
What he didn't expect was that the content he posted on his media account was quickly posted on Douyin.

There's a post titled: "The Silent Anger of a Tycoon!"

"Seriously, after seeing that video posted by that 'agriculture enthusiast,' I really don't know if the person was trying to show off their skills, or if they were just ignorant, or if they were just showing off their 50 followers online."

"Everyone knows that rapeseed is mostly imported, which means we are at the mercy of others. Now that Chairman Liu has developed this type of rapeseed that grows quickly, has a high yield, and is rich in oil, that can completely solve this problem."

"We won't have to be beholden to anyone anymore. The government even provides substantial funding every year for rapeseed research. Isn't Chairman Liu's elaborate scheme just a way to keep foreign attention?"

"Now that we've achieved results, a self-important internet celebrity has directly exposed it. I'm sure many people with 50 followers online have seen it and have already told their masters."

The video title went viral instantly because the issues involved were so serious that even ordinary netizens could understand what was going on.

Is that blogger, 'Agriculture Enthusiast,' really worth 50?

When many people went to watch the exposé video again, they found that the video was gone and the account of the "agriculture enthusiast" had been banned.

This made everyone realize that it was indeed that wealthy tycoon Liu Ye who had caused all this trouble.

A modern version of feigning one's intentions while secretly advancing another?
It's just a pity that the results were leaked when they were finally achieved.

Even the most meticulous plans can have flaws.

As the video says, once the master arrives with the 50 yuan, the research results may be stolen, which would be like doing a favor for someone else.

In the lab, professors Liu Ye, Chu Ping, and Bao Jing started thinking of countermeasures after the news broke, and none of those who tried to find out more information responded.

"Why don't we just admit it?" Bao Jing suddenly suggested. "Anyway, Patriarch Chen has always said he believes in science, so isn't this very scientific?"

Chu Ping and Liu Ye exchanged glances. It seemed that if the Chen family head had no objections, then taking the blame wouldn't be out of the question. In that case, other counties or other researchers shouldn't interfere.

“It seems there’s something even worse than this,” a professor suddenly said. “Take a look at this video, ‘The Silent Anger of a Tycoon.’”

Liu Ye, Chu Ping, and the others took out their phones to check, and when they saw 50 related posts and 50 posts related to their master, their expressions changed.

This is indeed a terrible problem. The key question is, what if these people come and offend the Chen family?
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Chu Ping and Liu Ye did not hesitate and hurriedly left the laboratory.

We must inform Patriarch Chen about this matter.
